Here are the latest updates I can share based on current reporting:
- Collin Chandler has entered the NCAA transfer portal, with Kentucky reportedly still in the mix to keep him in Lexington. This was reported in early April 2026, and sources indicated he "left the door open" for a potential return to Kentucky depending on upcoming conversations.[1][2]
- BYU remains a strong suitor, and several outlets have noted BYU as a frontrunner in the transfer discussions, though Chandler’s status remained fluid at that time.[4][1]
- As of mid-April 2026, FOX Sports and other outlets continued to provide updates on Chandler’s status, including performance notes from his Kentucky season and ongoing transfer chatter.[3]
If you’d like, I can pull the most recent articles from these outlets and summarize any new developments, including potential destinations and timelines. I can also track updates from Kentucky, BYU, and other reported schools and provide a concise, up-to-date timeline.

Collin Chandler had a strong season for the Kentucky Wildcats. He also became a fan favorite in Lexington for his ability to put up monster dunks. Big Blue Nation will certainly hate to see Chandler go, but that's exactly what is expected to happen.
