Bembry was medically redshirted at Florida State during his freshman season. Bembry entered the transfer portal on April 20 and has had a quiet recruitment since. West Virginia is seemingly in the driver’s seat with a visit to Morgantown this weekend.

From Bembry’s bio at FSU:

West Virginia also reached out to Memphis transfer Malcolm Dandridge on Wednesday night. Dandridge has played four years at Memphis under Penny Hardaway, committing from the class of 2019 as a four-star prospect.
