Kanter ineligible

Breaking news: Per KSR, Kentucky has petitioned the NCAA for more time to submit completely new information regarding Kanter's eligibility.

This will be an interesting situation. An NCAA review is a panel that is instructed to review the exact same case as the NCAA viewed in the initial hearing. It is a review only, and not another hearing, meaning that new information cannot be submitted. Obviously UK knows this, but I am wondering how this turns out.

UK probably figures that since the 'AA is now apparently changing rules as they go, it can't hurt to break protocol.

Hell, its worth a try.

I did just get clarification on the issue however. UK is petitioning the NCAA to allow them to submit the information to the appeals board. If the NCAA approves, then the info is submitted to the review panel.

Either way, this delays the decision into next week and possibly beyond.

Here's ESPN's story on it. Kentucky asks NCAA to take second look at Enes Kanter's eligibilty - ESPN

Personally, I don't see how the Cam Newton situation should change anything. There's no proof money was ever exchanged in Cam's situation. Everyone knows Kanter received money for playing basketball and was therefore deemed a "professional" by the NCAA.

Hat, you think this changes anything?

Why is that relevant? It's a violation to solicit the funds, regardless if you recieve them. Kanter wasn't an adult. He didn't sign any contract. How can we say he knew about the 33K? Since the 'AA has gone from the "The child is the parent" standard they used to hammer USC to the "Well, the precious little child didn't know" logic used in the Cam Newton case, they had to know this was coming. If they rule Kanter ineligible, get ready for the howls of a double standard, especially considering Kanter was committed to Washington before rethinking and signing with UK. Want to guess who NCAA President Mark Emmert's previous employer was?

Jerkoff was the president there! Emmert is worthless.

Beautiful ending to this would be for Kanter to be ineligible, and this to be barrel of gasoline on the Cam Newton fire, forcing the NCAA to reverse their rule on Newton or publicly admit their fraudulence.

To make it more interesting, apparently the money has been kept "in escrow" for all practical purposes, and has remained untouched.

Dang. Sucks for us then. UK is on a whole different level with Kanter in the lineup.

Oh, I'm not sure they'll rule him eligible. I'm just sure they're going to catch Hell from one side or the other.

I can't imagine it will be good to determine a player is eligible if they simply pay back money they take. That seems like a recipe for a complete disaster. They really screwed up the situation with Auburn. They're lucky that the World Cup Draw was yesterday so that their decision wasn't the stupidest one made by a sports governing body this week.

Hearing stuff that Kanter may be granted eligibility. Mind you, this information is from a huge Kentucky fan, but still.
