has officially been denied, according to the GoDucks.com website. The Ducks still have plenty of firepower to make another deep tournament run, but there will be no additional inside help for Hebard this season other than the current rotation that includes Sabally, Boley, Giomi, and 6'5" frosh Cochrane (has played 7 minutes per game this season). Prince continues to recover from injury, but was expected to be healthy enough to play by late January based upon comments made by Graves this fall. For those who have seen a healthy Prince play prior to her leg injury, they are aware of how much she could have contributed to the Ducks' national title prospects if healthy and eligible later this season. goducks.com/news/2019/12/11/womens-basketball-prince-waiver-denied-by-ncaa.aspx |

There seems to be no rhyme or reason for what the NCAA decides. Ducks are going to have a lot of first year players available next season. It will be interesting to see who sticks with them, and who decides to move on over the next couple years.

Guess the NCAA didn't buy the story that she was "scared to death" of staying at Texas.

Guess the NCAA didn't buy the story that she was "scared to death" of staying at Texas. That should not even factor into the equation. The point was she sat out all of last year due to injury. It does not make sense to have her sit out two years in a row. I suspect that the NCAA cracking down on granting waivers this season is some sort of damage control for the no accountability no-rhyme-or reason standards they have practiced in the past. The figured starting to enforce stricter standards even now would help them against any law suits that might come down the pike. Or even a threat of a congressional investigation which was long overdue. |

If she paid any attention to Te'a Cooper, she would not be surprised in the slightest. |

The fact that she didn't play at all last year is irrelevant to the question at hand. You're injured, you play less than X number of games, you apply for an extra year of eligibility, you get it. I'm sure that would have happened had she stayed at Texas.
You transfer after your freshman year, you sit out a year - just as Destiny did, just as Taylor Kalmer did, just as countless others have done. The NCAA shouldn't be questioned for enforcing their own rules, agreed to, and actually put in place by, all their member schools. They should only be questioned when they don't enforce the rules.
