        If this is what they have been able to reel in for the male practice players I can see the need to troll for more.

            Taylor's story on Matej from today:
            But before Bošnjak can help the Shockers this upcoming season, he first needs eligibility from the NCAA. Mills told reporters two weeks ago that paperwork from Bošnjak’s grades while attending university in Croatia had been submitted to the NCAA and he feels “good about everything that’s been presented.” The case is still ongoing, a WSU spokesperson confirmed on Monday.​

                Lol i hate this. It’s not going to happen, because when has it ever happened? Either they actually have it out for wichita state, OR whoever’s handling it is pretty **** at their job. It’s just sad at this point, even more so because I need a tourney trip sooner rather than later, and Matej would go a long way toward making that happen.

                  sound like he might be eligible by December with a retroactive start date to October, based on how things typically work for us.

                        When he is not granted eligibility (and I say when because, let's face it, he won't be), it won't be because the NCAA stands for academic excellence. That went out the window a while ago, and the facade was completely ripped down once NIL got here. It's not about student-athletes; it's about money and the biggest brands.

                        As much of a capitalist as I am, the pursuit of money has ruined college athletics and there's no turning back now. Student-athletes? Pfft. That's naivete.

                          Easy solution: take the NCAA to court, get an injunction, play the young man in the meantime.

                            When is the last time one of these situations shook out in our favor? Never?

                              This is what virtually EVERYBODT does. Sue the NCAA. get an injunction. the other option is to play him and then sue the NCAA. It's almost a certain win either way.

                              Worst case is that some games are forfeited before the court ruling takes effect. Forfeited games don''t keep butts pout of seats.
                              The future's so bright - I gotta wear shades.

                                A certain win for WSU? Who doesn't have a single General Counsel member that has any serious expertise in NCAA athletics? I suppose we could outsource it to some 3rd party firm that doesn't understand the urgency or give two sheets about the result ...
