During the recruiting process, the Gophers learned that Payne's parents, George and Emma, immigrated from Cameroon in 2000. They have an older son, Rodrick, a 6-foot-9 freshman center at Wisconsin-River Falls, and an 11-year old son Ethan in the fifth grade.
George and Emma are nurses George at Regions Hospital in St. Paul and Emma at St. John's Hospital in Maplewood.
"(Pharrel) is adventurous and very curious," George Payne said. "When he sees something, he has a lot of questions about it."
Like his parents, Pharrel is drawn to science, making himself integral to the team off the court, too. "If somebody on our team will be struggling in one of our science classes, Pharrel is our go-to guy," Weah said.
Payne added: "Learning new things is fun for me, specifically about the human body. That's the type of stuff that I'm attracted to."
So it's no surprise Johnson had to answer a lot of questions from Pharrel. "He did his due diligence," Johnson said. "He is a thinker. He is a mature kid. All these guys are."

Not sure this solves the problems we had last year. A low post big who can't shoot free throws is not great given the floor spacing issues we had.

Our starting center last year made 18 field goals all season.

You're not sure that getting a super athletic big man who averaged 10 pts and 6 boards a game in the Big 10 while being a huge rim-protector helps? Some of y'all just want to be miserable.

Looks like Buzz is continuing the trend of getting high character players. I'm sure he will fit in just right with the team and the coaching staff.

Rated a top-50 player out of the portal. Is a great get.
