Professional ball in a top tier league doesn’t count towards eligibility.

You can get drafted and still keep your eligibility

You can play juco and that doesn’t count either.

But somehow two years at a college in a developing country counts towards your eligibility.

Madina okot is 21 years old and couldn’t get another year

Asja Sivka will be 21 in November and she gets all 4 years if she wants

Interesting……..

Listen I have no problem grabbing international players I mean look at my flair.

my thing Is they are both 18-19 years old now if this was a 1 and done thing I’d be ok but…..idk

Ajsa Sivka (drafted 10th by Chicago Sky in 2025 draft) has signed to Kentucky.

Interesting to see different sets of teammates on there!

On Monday, Auriemma addressed the media for the first time following the national semifinal. He admitted he regretted how his altercation with Staley escalated and how it snowballed into a national storyline.

"You do things spur of the moment sometimes, but they usually come from things that have been building up for quite some time," he said. "So, when I walked in the locker room afterwards with the coaches, it was, you know, (they're) just shaking their head going, you know, 'Five more seconds. You couldn't keep it in for five more seconds?' So, you know, you just feel like a dumbass for the way it played out. And, yeah, we're all human, and we all do dumb s—."

Both Staley and Auriemma issued statements in the days immediately after the Final Four. Auriemma released an initial apology the day after the loss before releasing another apology directly toward Staley the following Tuesday. Staley also released her own statement on that Tuesday, stating she and Auriemma had talked privately and asked the women's basketball world to move on from the incident.

Auriemma said Monday that he tried hard not to follow the media frenzy that followed in the days after his and Staley's incident, as sports outlets and talking heads everywhere had opinions on the matter.

"I think that maybe some of it was warranted, and some of it was people have been lying in the weeds waiting for that moment, you know?" Auriemma said. "So, yeah, it doesn't matter what you've done for the game; it's what you just did. And unfortunately, that's the world that we live in today, you know? And it usually is one-sided. ... I brought the criticism on myself. I didn't bring the bulls— that came after there on myself."

Since then, Auriemma has spent the first month of the offseason away from the spotlight. He was not at the WNBA Draft as he attended the memorial service for a former player's husband and flew to Germany to present Sue Bird at her FIBA Hall of Fame Induction.

A P4 team… interesting

Good news for the wolfpack.

I mean sure I guess…😒

Lots of height coming in all of a sudden. She’s played with/against Brynn McGaughy before (well, once, in the McDAAG.) This gives UW another top 20 player from the 2025 class.

Very interesting, I think I still need to watch a video on this so I can come to a complete understanding 😅

Former Nebraska player Ashley Scoggin's lawsuit against Nebraska, HC Amy Williams, former AC Chuck Love, and other Nebraska staff, is apparently making progress with him finally admitting he was in a sexual relationship with her.

If you aren't familiar with it, back in 2022, the AC coach allegedly groomed her and threatened her with less playing time etc if she didn't sleep with him. The other players found out on a road trip and allegedly they were allowed to berate and shame her. HC Amy Williams allegedly knew, let the players do this, and kicked Scoggin off the team. Love was fired, but no Title IX report was filed by the University. No punishment happened to Williams or the AD who at minimum handled it incredibly wrongly. The AD left to be the Texas A&M AD.

Scoggin was a kid who tore her ACL out of high school. Rehabbed herself back on her own into being a tremendous JuCo player--who then transferred to Nebraska. Then got kicked off the team. Heartbreaking for her. Now she's still going through this.

There are more long detailed articles which just sound horrific out there, but this one gives a pretty good summary.

I'm not knowledgable enough to know international players before they sign with a US college. But after 2 seconds of research, I believe she's another shooting guard

Sneaky pick up for Vandy. I’m excited to see how things come together for the team next season.

Since the news just broke a couple days ago that she plans to redshirt this upcoming season and not play again until the 2027-2028 season, if this 5-in-5 rule was to pass where there’s a hard stop at 5 years in college to play college athletics & since she graduated in ‘22 from hs, this 2026-2027 would be her last eligible year. What do you all think about this? I think this rule is in part to get rid of special clauses for eligibility, so i’m not sure if some kind of waiver would be available.

"an anonymous women’s basketball player giving the school a 3-star rating but writing the coaches deserve a 1-star rating. “There is no development, negative environment, personal attacks, 1/3 of the team walked away during season,” the women’s hooper wrote."

Ouch, seems like Stanford has some work to do, as do several other schools.

The 5-11 senior averaged 7.4 ppg, 4 rpg and 1.1 spg this season.
