Lucien entered the transfer portal back on November 24th and Vanderbilt didn't waste any time getting involved, extending an offer the very next day.

Listed at 6-foot-2, 192-pounds on Connecticut's roster, Lucien had 29 tackles, two interceptions, and four passes defended for the 1-10 Huskies this season.

During his three seasons at UConn, Lucien totaled 57 tackles in 30 games.

Vanderbilt got a glimpse of Lucien earlier this past season as the Commodores defeated UConn, 30-28, back on October 2nd. Against Vandy, he tallied six tackles and two pass break-ups.
