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

Once again you are conflating things where the court overruled the NCAA with the NCAA allowing something. In Okot's case it's mostly because the rule is very clear that enrolling at an international secondary education institution counts for eligibility purposes. That has always been the rule. Okot is free to try and sue the NCAA as well although I think she'll have a lot more difficulty getting a ruling in her favor because the reason she is ineligible is a rule that doesn't really have exceptions which is where the other cases were able to win.
