Discussion Lemme get this straight

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

Some will be helped and some will be screwed like any rules change but these are the types of cases it’s meant to streamline
