This kind of BS is exactly why I don’t follow the dog and pony show that is recruiting.

Except this is on the NCAA for not acting in a timely manner rather than anything with regards to recruiting.

Sucks he will miss all the non conference games but at least he can come in and play most of the year.

Funny... In a twisted sort of way. The ad at the top of the linked 247 article was headed: "Start Freeze-Drying at home... "

Time to send the clearing house le Pomme du Mort.

Something similar is going on with Gonzaga's Oumar Ballo, another post player originally from Mali who reclassified from 2020 to 2019. Just seems there are questions with some of their international school transcripts and the NCAA is being slow in finishing up.

So he's not a recruit?

Bummer, was looking forward to him in the non-conference with our tough schedule. Seems like we go through something like this every year in terms of a player being injured and missing the first few games or there are eligibility issues.

Hopefully the NCAA gets its act together and is able to clear him before the December deadline. That would be roughly when Lou King was able to start playing for us last season. Bad news is Dante isn't able to practice.

Rather have out the first 6 and play the next 20+, then play 9 games and then never play again.

Just sayin'.

If this was Duke, North Carolina, Kentucky, or Kansas he'd be eligible for the entire season. This is complete BS by the NCAA, as usual. I know people are worried about how paying players would create superteams, but is that any different than what we currently have with NCAAF and NCAAMB and how they play favorites?

Or a better Felicio, remember him? Altman totally banked on him getting enrolled and the NCAA screwed us because he'd played a couple of pro games with Flamengo. Not getting into Oregon totally nerfed his development as a pro prospect too. Considering the rush to fill out the roster this year, I'm not surprised at a reclassifying player having transcript problems. Altman probably knew there was a good chance of this happening. The compliance office at Oregon is great but if something like this happens, it's usually something out of their hands.

Boo! But I guess as long as he gets here on December 14 and is qualified then that's probably not too big of a deal.

Wow, not the expected result. We rarely get good news from the NCAA.
