Insight into NCAA Clearing House

[CollegeBBallFan]

Good article from Andy Katz that gives us hope Oto could be here sooner than later.

...."If the prospect has taken a non-traditional type course, we have to verify the course meets NCAA requirements. In the case of international student-athletes, we have to make sure there are no red flags for academic or amateurism issues. Most all of these eventually get resolved and any delay is usually attributable to factors outside of our control -- high schools, online institutions, foreign clubs, etc., not getting back to us at all or in a timely matter. In the end, less than 1 percent of applicants are not certified."

....The NCAA's eligibility process is to the point where it is no longer sequential in terms of seasons (they no longer process fall sports first, then winter, then spring). The NCAA is now set up to process requests as they hit the system."

The Kanter ruling will be interesting. I think he may have to give up some games this season.

Kanter is OK to play regarding academics. His/UK's problem is getting the Pro. team in Turkey to provide his expense account. So far they (pro team) has refused to provide any information to UK or the NCAA. And they may never provide the informtion.

As a side note, Kilicli from West Virginia was forced this past summer to play for the national team in Turkey. He visited his parents and was then called to play.

That (first) part may lead to loss of a few games of eligibility, however unfair that may be.
