Wake Forest Sarr says hes entering transfer portal (via ESPN.com)

Wake Forest center Olivier Sarr tells ESPN he plans to enter the transfer portal, following the firing of coach Danny Manning.

.Sarr informed Wake Forest of his plans earlier this week, but the school asked him to wait until it hired a new head coach to replace Danny Manning. After the Demon Deacons hired Steve Forbes on Thursday, Sarr submitted his transfer paperwork. He expects to appear in the portal by Monday at the latest.

“I wanted to test the [NBA draft] waters,” Sarr told ESPN on Thursday night. “I requested the UAC [Undergraduate Advisory Committee]. I tried to test the waters, then I had a conversation with Coach and he convinced me to stay and get my degree. He had plans for me, I was going to do great things in the ACC, with the team and individually, of course. It was late April, Coach was going to stay. Then, 24-48 hours before the [draft] deadline, Coach got fired. I didn’t get the chance to put my name in and change my mind.”
