In a total of four years in the Big Ten Conference with the Terps and Michigan (2017-19), Haynes was a member of three NCAA tournament teams (2019-20 postseason was canceled), including a Final Four appearance in 2017-18. He was also a member of Big Ten Championship and Big Ten Tournament Championship team with the Wolverines.
In 2024-25, the Golden Eagles posted their third-straight 20-win season and participated in the NCAA tournament four the fourth-straight year.

MU also posted a standout season in the classroom, highlighted by a 3.28 team grade-point-average and Stevie Mitchell was named BIG EAST Scholar-Athlete of the Year and a CSC First Team Academic All-American.
The 2023-24 campaign was highlighted by the program’s 17th all-time appearance in the Sweet 16 and the team’s 56 victories (29-7, 27-10) were the most in school history in a two-year span. Back-to-back Consensus All-America selection Tyler Kolek, just the third ever at Marquette, highlighted the team’s individual recognition on the court.
