Now that Wake Forest star Olivier Sarr is in the NCAA transfer portal, new Demon Deacon head coach Steve Forbes is doing whatever it takes to keep the 7-foot center in Winston-Salem.
After bringing the entire Wake staff to meet with Sarr in person on Sunday, Forbes has been joining various podcasts and radio stations to talk about their recruiting efforts and roster retention, among numerous topics.
In his most recent appearance this afternoon, Forbes threw a jab at the University of Kentucky – a school expected to be in serious contention to land Sarr – when comparing to Wake Forest academically.
