Pat Kelsey has been hard at work since he got the job at Louisville assembling next year's roster, and while he has a decent amount of guards Louisville really needs a big man. Great Osobor would be a perfect fit and he is scheduled to visit Louisville later this week.

Ososbor is scheduled to take a visit to Louisville later this week:

Ososbor is scheduled to visit Louisville, Texas Tech, and Washington later this week. He finished up his Kentucky visit yesterday with a commitment to the Wildcats, while Kentucky also locked up another big man commit in Oklahoma State transfer Brandon Garrison. With two centers already committed to the Wildcats it would be hard to see Osobor committing there as well.

While I wouldn't say he is completely out of the mix for Kentucky, It would be much more likely that he would go to the other schools mentioned than the Wildcats.

Louisville needs a starting center on roster and Osobor would be a perfect fit for Kelsey's first year squad. Hopefully the cardinals can lock him up when he visits later this week.
