I caught the end of the 11 o'clock sports on WLW last night and George Vogel had a quick hit on a UK transfer considering X as per CBS's Jeff Goodman. I didn't catch the name but assuming it's Charles Matthews a 6'6" guard who averaged 10 minutes a game as a freshman. Michigan is the other team in the mix.

I believe he is visiting Washington as well. Would be a great pickup. Not the best shooter, but can really defend and rebound.

He's from the Chicago area so i would bet he ends up in Ann Arbor as well.

Ann Arbor no closer to Chicago Maybe perceived playing time?

Ann Arbor is 45 minutes or so closer to Chicago than Cincinnati is. A bit further but doubt it makes a huge difference in decision. As a former top 50 recruit, I would think he is moving for playing time and exposure. Would love to have this guy.

Think X would be open to signing Kentucky forward Derek Willis? He has been released after being arrested for public alcohol intoxication in Boone County. Seems like a minor incident, but for UK to release him, you have to wonder if there is more to the story. We didn't release JP.

If that was his come-to-Jesus moment I'd welcome him with open arms. Hope the moment was JP's also.
