Andrew Carr, a notable Wake Forest transfer, has committed to Kentucky, significantly enhancing the team's roster with his experience and skills. Carr, a 6-foot-11 forward, brings a commendable record from his previous season, averaging 13.5 points and 6.8 rebounds, and shooting 37% from three-point range. His addition is part of Kentucky's strategic move under coach Mark Pope to recruit experienced players, as demonstrated by the recent signings of several seasoned transfers: Lamont Butler with 131 games and 102 starts, Carr himself with 117 games and 112 starts, Amari Williams with 105 games and 79 starts, and Otega Oweh with 60 games and 37 starts. This approach aims to bring maturity and depth to the team, which is expected to shift Kentucky's dynamics significantly in the upcoming season.

Ridiculous get for Utah State. Thought that Tucker Anderson would be playing Power 5 ball with three years of eligibility left. An awesome three-point shooter. 75 made this past season, shot 38.1% from three. They’re putting together an ASUN All Star Team in Logan. https://t.co/BdE0yhPYLY
