Mark Stoops says SEC schools will vote on in-conference transfers soon

The Kentucky Wildcats are still waiting to learn if Joey Gatewood and Olivier Sarr can play for their respective teams this season.

Sarr, who has already been cleared the NCAA, is now waiting on the SEC to decide if he can play during the 2020-21 season. The SEC has a rule that states players who transfer into the SEC must have two years of eligibility left to be eligible to play. Otherwise, they have to sit out a full season, though Kentucky can apply for a waiver to get the Wake Forest transfer eligible now.
