Kentucky basketball landed one of the prominent transfers of the college basketball offseason, bringing in Olivier Sarr from Wake Forest. Months later, his waiver status is still up in the air, and ESPN’s Dick Vitale isn’t having it.

Whatever the reason for the delay in the Sarr case, it is definitely frustrating, especially with proposal that would give players a blanket one-time transfer without sitting out getting kicked down the road earlier this year.

Olivier Sarr is expected to be a major contributor for Kentucky, after averaging 13.7 points and 9.0 rebounds per game for Wake Forest last year. After his decision, Dick Vitale tweeted that UK “struck gold” with the move. The NCAA’s decision, whenever it comes, will have a huge impact on Kentucky in 2020-21.

i would be willing to bet----this will turn out like the Canter investigation where it took a whole season for the ncaa to rule

I don't feel it really matters how long the dumb asses take. I don't believe we'll be playing until 2021 anyway. They may even do away with the non-conference games like they did in FB. [Eek!]
