The storied Kentucky Wildcats basketball program hasn’t seen the second weekend of the NCAA tournament since 2019. That’s a big reason why John Calipari said Kentucky basketball needs “another voice,” leading to his resignation, and the former BYU head coach Mark Pope becoming his alma mater’s new coach. Pope led the Cougars to March Madness in their first year in the Big 12 last season, but he has his work cut out for him in a new-look SEC that has added Oklahoma and Texas. Pope also rebuilt the Kentucky basketball roster, with all of coach Cal’s former Wildcats not returning for the 2024-25 Kentucky basketball schedule.
In years past, this would have presented a major problem, but the college basketball transfer portal alleviates some of those concerns. Pope has been active in this, adding eight 4-star transfers, per 247Sports, the most in all of college basketball. Who are Pope and UK keeping an eye on on the Kentucky basketball roster that is still in the 2024-25 college basketball transfer portal?

Kentucky Basketball Roster Matches
Pope had to hit the ground running when he was named Kentucky’s new head coach, as several members of last year’s Kentucky basketball roster left Lexington. Forward Zvonimir Ivisic is the first player to follow Calipari to Arkansas, and guard/forward Adou Thiero followed after playing his last two seasons under coach Cal. Aaron Bradshaw has joined Ohio State, and guard Joey Hart will be on the Ball State roster next season. Point guard DJ Wagner will follow Calipari to Arkansas.
Justin Edwards, Rob Dillingham and Ugonna Onyenso have made the final decision to declare for the Draft. Kentucky will also be without leading scorers Tre Mitchell and Antonio Reeves next season, as both players have graduated. Join CatsPause for the latest on all of Kentucky’s roster changes.
Kentucky Basketball News, Roster
Pope has 11 commitments for his inaugural season as UK coach, two of them being freshmen and nine coming through the transfer portal. The first group consists of two local products and are the two highest-ranked prospects in the country, according to 247Sports. No. 1 Travis Perry is a four-star point guard who was named Kentucky Mr. Basketball last season while leading his team to a state title. No. 2, Trent Noah, is a three-star small forward who averaged 29.9 points per game as a senior and became his county’s all-time leading scorer.
As for the transfers to join Pope in Lexington, Kentucky, they are highlighted by Jaxson Robinson, who follows the BYU coach. He averaged 14.2 points per game a year ago and is one of six players who averaged double figures last year at other schools who are now part of Kentucky’s 2024-25 basketball roster. Drexel alum Amari Williams brings a defensive presence to UK, as the three-time CAA Defensive Player of the Year has averaged 11.8 points, 8.0 rebounds and 2.0 blocks over the past three seasons.
