Reid Travis is expected to be a star in the Kentucky frontcourt this upcoming season. The experienced power forward came to Lexington from Stanford, where he was a two-time First Team All-Pac 12 selection, and ranks 16th on Stanford’s all-time career scoring list.
Travis transferred in to UK this offseason as a graduate student with one year of eligibility remaining, and his addition to the roster makes Kentucky one of the early favorites to go all the way in his only season as a Wildcat. It’s fair to say he is a very valuable transfer, but he’s not the first of his kind.
