Thank you, Jordan Lyons
There is growing sentiment to let all seniors play again next year, if there is a next year if they want to. Not just basketball but all spring sports. Wonder if JL would play next year if given the opportunity.
I read it as just spring sports, not winter since those sports completed their whole season minus championships. Spring sports only got like 2-3 weeks in. As for JL, I would kinda doubt it. I’m sure he would like to start his professional career, and there’s not exactly a ton of stuff for him to do in the classroom. Options would be a double major or a masters degree in something he might not care about.
An NCAA council has recommended that seniors be given another year if their season ended early. I don’t know if JL would qualify. They have given no details yet.
For the Spring sports it would make sense because they barely had any season under their belts at all, for the winter sports like Basketball it would make zero sense, and there would not be a fair way to realistically make it work anyways given scholarship restrictions. A lot of seniors were already done, and the few that were still playing, in most cases only had 1 or 2 more games left in their season, so that's all pretty much a dead issue as far as gaining any traction for basketball really.
