The Wisconsin Badgers are actively looking to improve its roster and one of the names they are looking at in the transfer portal is South Dakota State Jackrabbits William Kyle III. He was only a sophomore this past season and will have two more years remaining of eligibility.
One of the things about Kyle III is that he was a high school basketball teammate with Badgers Chucky Hepburn. Kyle III could be a potential replacement for Tyler Wahl. Some of the other names that the Wisconsin Badgers have to replace are A.J. Storr and Connor Essegian.

William Kyle III was the Summit League Defensive Player of the Year this past season. He helped South Dakota State win their conference tournament and get a 15th seed in the Big Dance, before losing to the two-seeded Iowa State Cyclones in the first round. In that game, he scored 14 points, grabbed seven rebounds, and recorded four assists.

He is 6’9″ and weighs 230 lbs. Last season with the South Dakota State Jackrabbits, he averaged 13.1 PPG, 6.6 RPG, 1.7 APG, 1.6 BPG, and 0.3 SPG. Kyle III also shot 62.3% from the field, which was ranked 12th in all of college basketball.
Several Schools Have Reached Out To William Kyle III Including the Wisconsin Badgers

Many schools have reached out to William Kyle III including the Wisconsin Badgers, according to Mike Sautter of Hurrdat Sports. At least 22 teams have reached out to him and some of the BIG10 schools that have reached out are the Nebraska Cornhuskers and the Iowa Hawkeyes. Some of the other big-name programs that have reached are the Iowa State Cyclones, the Florida Gators, and the Kansas Jayhawks.
One of the disadvantages that the Badgers might be at in trying to lure Kyle III to the program is that he is from Bellevue, Nebraska and he could decide to go home and play for the Cornhuskers instead of the Badgers. That would be a huge loss in the transfer portal if that went down.
The Wisconsin Badgers were in the NCAA Tournament this past season before losing to the James Madison Dukes in the first round. Wisconsin needs to find reinforcements in the portal. It would make sense for Kyle III to go back home and play for the Nebraska Cornhuskers, but the Badgers need to find there Tyler Wahl replacement and he would be the perfect one.
