The Kentucky Wildcats will have an all-new look when the 2024-25 college basketball season begins. After 15 seasons in Lexington, John Calipari left to become Arkansas’ new head coach. Kentucky hired Mark Pope from BYU as his replacement. Pope was a standout guard on the Wildcats’ 1996 national championship team and is coming off a solid five-year run leading the Cougars. Pope will bring a fast-paced, offense-centric system that relies heavily on 3-point shooting. Following the 2024 NCAA tournament, all scholarship players on Kentucky’s basketball roster transferred or graduated, leaving Pope with minimal time to assemble his Kentucky basketball roster for the upcoming season.
Pope and his staff have done an impressive job targeting and landing a group talented enough to rank as the No. 5 transfer class in the country, according to 247Sports. The Wildcats’ roster is nearly complete, but they still have two scholarships remaining.

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
Most of Kentucky’s original 2024 recruiting class followed Calipari to Arkansas. The only player who remained with the Wildcats was Lyon County (KY) point guard Travis Perry. 247Sports lists Perry as a four-star prospect and the No. 77 overall player in the country for the 2024 recruiting cycle. His offensive awareness and shooting ability make him a great fit for Pope’s system. Kentucky later added another local high school product, three-star small forward Trent Noah.
Most of Pope’s starting lineup at Kentucky came through the Transfer Portal. UK’s transfer class is headlined by former Oklahoma State center Brandon Garrison and former BYU guard/forward Jaxson Robinson. Garrison was a five-star prospect in the 2023 class and averaged 7.5 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game in his lone season in Stillwater. Robinosn, BYU’s leading scorer a year ago, withdrew from the 2024 NBA draft to follow Pope to Lexington. Robinson, a lanky 6-foot-1 guard, averaged 14.2 points and 2.9 rebounds per game for the Cougars in 2023-24. Join CatsPause for the latest on all of Kentucky’s roster additions.
