I’d watch Kentucky for UF transfer Khris Bogle

It’s no secret Kentucky needs more depth on the edge for next season, and Bogle is already one of the top players in that department that’s set to change schools.

Kentucky Wildcats fans may want to keep an eye on Florida Gators transfer Khris Bogle.

A former four-star, top 100 recruit out of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the 6’4, 242 pound edge rusher committed to the Gators in 2019 as one of the top 10 ranked prospects in the state.

Yesterday, he entered the transfer portal.

Bogle appeared in 10 games for the Gators this season, starting three. Since joining Florida, he’s played in 35 games and has accounted for 69 total tackles, 12 tackles for loss, and 8 sacks.

Kentucky is expected to be a contender to land Bogle in the transfer portal, and there’s already some connections there.

Florida edge Khris Bogle was in the same class at Cardinal Gibbons with the two Niks. Kentucky will be a player for the former 4-star recruit in the transfer portal.

Landing Bogle would be quite the win on the recruiting trail for Kentucky. There’s plenty of talent there, and it’s clear a lot of Florida people are hoping he doesn’t transfer as they believe he’ll thrive with a larger role.

With Josh Paschal leaving and Jordan Wright’s future up in the air, Kentucky could use some extra pass rush help. Bogle would be a huge boost.

Another transfer worth keeping an eye on.
