Kentucky big man Oscar Tshiebwe wants to change his jersey number to 9 to represent the chase for title No. 9 for the Wildcats.
Unfortunately, the NCAA won’t allow the change because they have a rule against jerseys having numbers between 6-9.
Oscar talked about that and much more in his offseason press conference today:
“For me, the Player of the Year is gone, now we’re in a new season.”
Asked @Oscartshiebwe34 if he has put the last year to rest. He says he plans to play at a higher level than last season.
“Everybody is saying we’re not letting Oscar do what he did last year.” #BBN pic.twitter.com/e8W91MdsHE
