NORMAN, OKLAHOMA - Rashaad Carruth plans to transfer from Kentucky to Oklahoma to play basketball. <br> <br> The 6-foot-5 sophomore guard was a McDonald&#39;s high school All-American at Oak Hill Academy in Virginia before signing with the Wildcats. He said he&#39;s leaving Kentucky because of a disagreement with Wildcats coach Tubby Smith. <br> <br> Carruth was not recruited by Oklahoma, but said he noticed the team as it advanced in the NCAA tournament to the Final Four. <br> <br> Carruth visited Norman last weekend and played pickup games with current Sooners players and said he likes the entire team. <br> <br> Under NCAA rules, Carruth would have to sit out one year after transferring and would have three years of eligibility remaining, beginning with the 2003-04 season.
