According to multiple media reports, including from 247Sports' Evan Daniels, KU basketball guard Charlie Moore will be transferring from the university.

Rivals' Corey Evans first reported the news, citing a source who said Moore had entered his name in the transfer portal. KU Athletics confirmed the news Saturday afternoon.

The move was somewhat expected after Moore struggled to get onto the court in his redshirt-sophomore season, but it was made a little more complicated considering Moore initially joined KU as a transfer. If Moore transfers and sits out again, he will likely need to apply for a waiver from the NCAA or he may lose a year of eligibility.

Of the transfer, KU coach Bill Self said through a release: "Charlie notified me yesterday (Friday) that he wanted to transfer and be closer to his family. We appreciate Charlie’s time here at KU and wish him the absolute best moving forward."

Originally a member of the class of 2016, Moore earned a four-star grade in the 247Sports Composite. The rankings had him as the No. 16-rated point guard in his class, while the 247Sports staff graded him out a little lower. Moore was ranked No. 105-overall in the Top247 and as the No. 21-overall point guard in the class. He initially committed to Memphis before swapping to California, where he was heavily featured in his freshman season.

The 5-11 point guard averaged 12.2 points, 3.5 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.1 steals per game in his lone year at Cal. He shot 38.8 percent from the field and 35.2 percent from 3, while averaging four free throw attempts per game.

Moore topped out with a 38-point outing in his second game against UC Irvine in which he drew 17 free throws and drilled 10 shots from the field. He scored 17-or-more points in each contest of a five-game stretch early in non-conference play and posted a combined 46 points in three Pac-12 tournament games, as Cal lost in the semifinal to Oregon and then fell in the first round of the NIT.

Cal went 21-13 that season and 10-8 in Pac-12 play. Moore ranked third on the team in scoring and first in assists.

Moore then made the choice to come to Kansas. Illinois was in the hunt at the time. Talked up as a tough competitor and a bit of an underdog because of his younger look, Moore garnered expectations as a potential key contributor. He also drew some buzz after lighting up a camp scrimmage against former KU players. Moore scored 23 of his team's final 32 points and hit six 3-pointers as part of a game-high 26-point eruption.

The redshirt-sophomore then made a summer tour to Italy to play for former KU coach Larry Brown all before the 2018-19 season began.

At KU, however, Moore struggled right away, scoring 0 or 1 point in three of his first four games. He hit six 3s and finished with 18 points in a win against South Dakota in December, but then finished with three-or-fewer points in 10 of his next 11 games. That included a six-game stretch where he went scoreless and shot 0 for 7 from the field.

Outside of the 18-point game, Moore did not reach double-figures in scoring again. He scored nine total points between KU's five postseason games. He finished the year averaging 2.9 points and 1.3 assists per game. He shot 28.6 percent from the field and 26.7 percent from 3. He averaged 13.1 minutes per contest.
