Rice Transfer Arsalan Kazemi has decided he is going to transfer to Oregon to play basketball.
There had been reports that he had Kentucky and the Ducks in his top 2.
Here is the report:
When he was granted his scholarship release by the Owls, Kazemi said he was considering a half-dozen schools for his destination, and identified Oregon and Kentucky as his top two choices. UO officials have said they can’t comment on Kazemi because he is considered a recruit, but two sources with knowledge of Kazemi’s situation indicated that he had decided on the Ducks.
Kazemi met with UO coach Dana Altman last week, according to a report in the Houston Chronicle. One significant advantage for Oregon was that it doesn’t begin classes until Monday; other schools he was considering are already in session.
If Arsalan Kazemi wants the chance to play this season it makes sense why he picked Oregon.
I can’t believe they haven’t started school yet and that alone would make me think about being a Duck as well.
