Pittsburgh transfer Marcus Carr announced shortly after Kevin Stallings was dismissed that he was considering transferring. Carr has since informed 247Sports that he’s definitely leaving and looking for a new home.

“I’m just trying to make the best decision for me and my career,” Carr told 247Sports late Thursday evening.

“I kind of see myself as a winner, I have been winning my whole life and I just want to be in a position where I can really win. Just watching this year, especially this year in the tournament and postseason play I know that’s somewhere I want to be.”

Thus far, Carr, a 6-foot-2 guard, said the schools prioritizing him are Michigan, Marquette, Minnesota and Ohio State. Carr has yet to schedule any official visits.

“I’m just trying to focus on finishing school right now and I’ll be done by next week,” he said. “Then after that I plan to be going on them.”

In terms of coaches that he’s built good relationships with, Carr pointed out three.

“I’ve talked to quite a bit with coach [John] Beilein, coach [Richard] Pitino and coach [Steve] Wojo,” he said.

Carr broke down what he liked about his conversations with each of the three:

John Beilein:“Just the type of guy he is. I know that he’s a great coach, he obviously wins a lot and has a great program but just getting to know him has been really cool.”

Richard Pitino:“Coach Pitino as well is a cool guy, I like him and what he’s trying to do over there at Minnesota.”

Steve Wojciechowski:“Style of play, Big East is a good conference as well. They’re kind of a younger team that’s kind of on the rise. They’ve been to the postseason the past couple of years so they’re doing some good things.”

Carr said he’s not in a hurry to make his college choice.

“I think once I go on my visits and sit down with my people and talk about it that’s probably when but not a specific day,” he said.

Last season, Carr averaged 10 points a game, while tossing out four assists. Known in high school for his shooting ability, Carr connected on 36 of 108 three-point attempts.

“I would say playmaking on both ends of the floor,” Carr said when asked abou this ability. “I compete on both offense and defense. Offensively, I’m able to make plays for my teammates as well as myself.”
