Akoy Agau, a native of Sudan via Omaha, NE, was the 75th ranked player in the nation when he enrolled at Louisville in 2013, but played sparingly in three semesters and transferred to Georgetown after the fall 2014 semester. He sat out the 2015-16 season at Georgetown due to injury but averaged 4.6 points and 4.5 points per game as a redshirt junior, starting in eight games.

Agau earned his Georgetown degree in 2017 and pursued graduate study with a fifth year waiver at Southern Methodist University in 2017. He received a sixth year of eligibility from the NCAA and completed his college career at Louisville for the 2018-19 season, with 31 points in 19 games.
