NASHVILLE, Tenn. - - Belmont University men's basketball head coach Evan Bradds announced Wednesday the signing of Vincent Neugebauer [NOY-guh-BAUER] to play basketball for the Bruins, starting with summer 2026 enrollment.
"Vincent will impact our frontcourt right away," Bradds said. "He has a tremendous work ethic and his understanding of spacing on both ends of the floor fits how we aspire to play. Vincent has received outstanding coaching throughout his career, and his experience last season in college basketball serves him well."

This past season, the 7-1 center made 14 game appearances for Florida Atlantic.

He had a season-high 11 points in 12 minutes vs. College of Charleston.

A native of Paderborn, Germany, Neugebauer has significant national team experience, representing Germany in the 2021 FIBA U20 championships – where he was teammates with Tristan Da Silva of the Orlando Magic - and the 2025 FIBA U23 3x3 championships.
