UK reaches out to highly-touted transfers Oscar Tshiebwe and Caleb Mills

If there’s anything to be taken away from the Kentucky Wildcats’ 3-6 start to the 2020-21 season, it’s that having experience. Thus, when building next season’s roster, the transfer portal will be an important tool to utilize.

One name now in the portal that Kentucky could look to pursue is big man Oscar Tshiebwe. The 6-9 forward entered the portal Tuesday after one and a half seasons with the West Virginia Mountaineers.

Now, Kentucky has reportedly reached out to Tshiebwe, according to Ben Roberts of the Herald-Leader.

The Herald-Leader has learned that UK was among the first schools to reach out to Tshiebwe, a former Wildcats recruiting target who took an official visit to Lexington during his initial recruiting process.
