William Kyle III is the fifth transfer UCLA coach Mick Cronin has landed as he works to revamp the Bruins' roster and offset key departures.
UCLA now has enough transfers to fill out a starting lineup. Go ahead and pencil in its latest as the center who will walk to midcourt for the opening tip. William Kyle III, who starred as a defensive menace for South Dakota State, will likely replace Adem Bona as the Bruins’ primary post player after verbally committing Wednesday on social media after taking an official visit earlier this week. “BRUIN NATION LETS WORK,” Kyle tweeted alongside a bear emoji as well as blue and gold hearts.
Kyle becomes the fifth transfer to become a Bruin, joining small forward Kobe Johnson , combo guard Skyy Clark and power forwards Eric Dailey Jr. and Tyler Bilodeau . All five players averaged double figures in scoring at their previous stops, significantly bolstering a UCLA offense that staggered for much of last season. Recruiting website 247Sports.com had ranked the Bruins’ transfer class No. 3 nationally before Kyle’s commitment, trailing only Indiana and Kansas.
