And it wasn’t the only good news of the afternoon.
Jarred Vanderbilt and Wenyen Gabriel sadly announced their intentions to keep their names in the NBA Draft, but Stanford star big man Reid Travis officially withdrew from the draft and announced his transfer from the school. Almost immediately, Travis-to-Kentucky rumors spread at a ridiculous rate.
Seriously, just about every recruiting analyst declared Kentucky the runaway favorite to land the 6-foot-8 graduate transfer.
To update the update: all signs pointing toward Reid Travis as a grad transfer to Kentucky. Different kind of one-and-done. Calipari has been critical of grad transfers in the past, but I guess situations change.
