Pat Kelsey has been hard at work in the first 72 hours as the head coach of Louisville basketball, and he officially got his 2nd transfer for next seasons roster.

Kelsey had one of his former players at the College of Charleston transfer to Louisville yesterday, and he gained another player today in James Scott.

Scott was a 6'11 freshman last year for Charleston and was named to the all-conference freshman team this season. Scott's numbers may not jump off the page when looking at them but his potential upside and defense show a lot of good upside.

Scott also shot a very high 79% from the floor overall and blocked 45 shots on the season last year, while only averaging 16 minutes per game at Charleston.
