According to Matt Norlander of CBS Sports, Kentucky head coach Mark Pope and his active staff have pretty much talked to every significant recruit in the transfer portal.
Norlander believes the addition of Jason Hart as an assistant coach will pay quick dividends on the recruiting trail.
The Wildcats have earned an official visit from Drexel transfer Amari Williams on Sunday. Pope met with Williams today.
According to Jeff Goodman, the new UK coach will meet with Utah State transfer Great Osobor tomorrow. Osobor averaged 17.7 points and 9.0 rebounds per game last season.
More on Kentucky recruiting: I was told by sources — not all at/connected to UK—that almost every notable high-major transfer in the portal that hasn’t committed elsewhere already has, at the very least, made contact w/ Kentucky and inquired about potentially playing for Pope.
