Here's a look at some of the key BYU players Mark Pope should look at bringing with him to Kentucky.

4. Richie Saunders (Junior; 6-5, 200)
Saunders is an interesting potential name. He's a shooter who has multiple years of eligibility still available and he's someone who knows his role.
While Jaxson Robinson was the key bench member, Saunders was vital to the success of BYU last year.
Saunders averaged 9.6 points and shot 52.3 percent overall and 36.4 percent from three off of the bench. He played 20.7 minutes a game and had just one start on the season. Despite that, he scored in double figures 15 times, including two 20-point games.
Saunders has good size and can create off the dribble. He's a very good spot up shooter as well who has a quick release, which bodes will especially if Mark Pope is trying to go out and get ball dominant lead guards.
