Sarr officially in transfer portal
- Thread starter YaySports
- Start date
I don't feel as confident as I could be without a decent true center, but yes it's possible. I have "felt" like we had a chance every year Cal has been here. I mean some act like we have no chance unless we field a virtual NBA level starting five. (Lord this fanbase is spoiled.) To repeat a recently way overly used quote, "you go to war with the army you have, not the one you wished you had."

I agree about Maker not playing college ball.
The only way I see Brooks on the bench is if we add two more stud Freshmen and Cal decides to try to win the title with an all Freshmen starting five to try to do something no one else has done.
I could see maybe Clarke at PG, with Boston, Brooks, Maker, and Sarr, though.
what makes you think the fbi is still snooping around? thats the only way any of these schools got caught and the ncaa is still looking like they'll let those teams slide.
how did you twist and spin that out of what i said?
are you in the small group that are begging for UK/Cal to cheat?
The NCAA better get wise real quick and grant waivers for guys like this that if denied will end up overseas or in the G league that is putting a lot of pressure on college BB as it is. They can improve college BB or lose another guy to the pros because he already said he ain't sitting out.
other than the FBI, bag men havent been caught yet in either of the main sports..... so yeah. pay the players the money they deserve.
Do you really think these NCAA guys sitting in their ivory towers even care or are in touch with what is going on?
Until they actually feel the sting in their pocket books, they will not care and will not do anything about it.
People like that do not react until it’s already too late and the problem has already smacked them in the face.
no, cheat like duke or bama football..... bag men...
you're paranoid if you think Cal's dumb enough to get caught... he never got caught at Memphis and every recruiting guy knows fed ex bought them players... the ncaa could never find proof.
please name at least one of those "every recruiting guy knows fed ex bought them players"
if you can't i call B.S. on your statement
you must not be old enough (or maybe too old and your memory has left you) to remember the last time UK got caught
you go a head and hope UK/Cal cheats
i will continue to hope they never do
I think with Green, Nix, and Todd all jumping to the G League it's going to start to add up. I don't have any faith in them either, but that ivory tower is already cracking and they better change or they will end up buried in the rubble.
Most of us are just going by what Cal has told us. You are a fraud if you don't have a legit post game. He's right. If you don't have a post game, you are missing an important dimension on both ends of the court.
PJ Washington was a great post guy as a 4, but he had some other guys in the paint with him that put us over the top. I don’t see that with the 2020 team.
Hopefully Cal reels in a couple of big fish. I'm sure he'll play small ball at times, but we're not going anywhere without at least one competent big man.
It would help if the NCAA was at least somewhat consistent. It's like they use a lotto ball machine to make decisions. Jermarl Baker got to play immediately at Arizona, but UVA and MSU couldn’t play the brothers that transferred from Marquette.
Enes Kanter didn’t get to play, but there was another Turkish player a couple years later that got cleared under the same circumstances.
The NCAA is a joke
Not like Louisville did.
More like how Kentucky did it in the 90s with Mercer and Anderson.
I never promised proof.
If you were around back then, you would know these things because everyone talked about them.
But part of the genius of the system is not having a paper trail, or what you would call "proof". I think we should the same with promising recruits.
So no "proof" on Duke either?
Coach K must be clean as a virgin's honey butter then.
I never would have thought we would have to pray and hope players from other schools would come here. Or losing a bum player people want to BYU
Kind of wierd to me that Sarr would consider staying at Wake and losing a ton of games when he has the opportunity to make a serious run at the national championship here. Oh well.
Well it sure sounds like the new Wake coach didn't change his mind.
And it Begins. What school has the hottest French translator with the best coach with the best chance to win a title???
I wonder if that school is in Lexington, KY with a BIG hole at the 5 spot?
If you could get Williams and Sarr for next year I feel like we would have all the correct pieces in place. I mean there other reclass guys and Makur we could get but I think those are more doubtful but the other two could be just as doubtful. So who knows.
The dude is taking shots at Uk and we haven't even been officially linked to Sarr yet have we? That right there shows you he's scared and of who. Maybe rumblings behind the scenes to bring us up out of the blue and take a cheap shot.
The problem is that UK and Sarr don't know if he would be eligible if he leaves Wake. He 100% knows he can play if he stays there. Does he take the chance and go elsewhere and then possibly not be able to play?
He would really have to want to leave Wake to take that chance, IMO.
Can’t he just choose Kentucky and if he isn’t approved a waiver, he go back to wake forest?
He doesn’t have to unenroll and he can wait to enroll to Kentucky in August. Depending on how fast they make a decision.
If he transfers and isn't given a waiver why can't he just then leave school and sign with an European team?
yeah, he could. But, that doesn’t seem like that’s what he wanted to do.
Because it’s the NCAA
No, I don’t think so. He would have to officially transfer and I don’t think it’s as simple as simply saying, “nevermind” and then going back to Wake.
