The 6-foot-5, 210-pound wing spent the past four years at Ohio State. Because he redshirted two seasons ago and the NCAA offered all winter athletes an additional year of eligibility, Jallow has two more seasons he can use to play for Charlotte.
He averaged 2.8 points, 2.2 rebounds and 0.7 assists in 14.8 minutes per game across 94 games – including 28 starts – in his four years with the Buckeyes. He ended his time with his former team by recording three points, three rebounds and three assists in 32 minutes of the first-round NCAA tournament loss to Oral Roberts.
Charlotte, which is coached by Ron Sanchez, went 9-16 last season and finished in the bottom half of Conference USA.
