would it be impossible to just delay the seasons a month? They came up with several reasons why it won't work including players wanting/needing to get on with their lives and when to start practices. |

Evidence that the idea of granting seniors another season is circulating about. It will be interesting to see if it gains traction and is taken up by the NCAA. |

I don't think to give every Sr an extra year is justified just because of the canceled playoff. I do think that players like Kat and the girl from Utah who applied for an injury waiver for an extra year of eligibility should have their requests reconsidered. In their case, it is not just about stats and winning a championship, but issues that impact their future in basketball.
As I have posted previously, it is important for players like Kat to have a successful Sr season. That will impact at what level they will continue their basketball careers. That level will impact their salaries and their salaries will influence how long they will be able to make it their career.
As every Oregon St fan knows, it was not until the last few games that Kat even got back to last year's level of play. The gal from Utah never even got close this year. The NCAA is still functioning under the premise that in WCBB it is about getting a scholarship to enhance their future career and earning opportunities. It never occurs to them that basketball might be that future career and earning opportunity. When they do not allow a player their last year to show what they can do they severely impact thair opportunities.
The present situation should be used as an opportunity to correct an injustice. If they are even considering any sort of mitigation for the lost games of the NCAA's, granting formerly refused waiver requests for players in Kats situation should be at the head of the list.
Kat should resubmit her application for a waiver for next year.

And with the Ucks maybe Hebard comes back and likely Moore with 5 MacDonald All American in the wings with Sedonia Prince and Satous sister hardly seems fair. |

I have heard that Kat hopes to play basketball professionally in the future.
I would be surprised if an appeal or another review of her situation is not made on her behalf to the NCAA at some point. If she got the additional season back, she should have the option to play at OSU or be able to go into the transfer portal to test the interest in her.
I very much agree with willtalk in the sense that Tudor's basketball future and earning potential would be enhanced with one more season to get healthier and stronger.

Big WOW on that one. We are sooooooo going to miss Mik. I wish she had another year left. She does so much for the program, on and off the court! |

Are you suggesting she should get 6 years of eligibility? |

No need for another year of eligibility for winter-sport athletes who completed 95 percent of their seasons, or, in some cases like Utah and WSU and Washington WBB, their entire season. Spring-sport athletes are an entirely different kettle of fish, they didn't get even anywhere near half of their seasons.

Spring-sport athletes are an entirely different kettle of fish, they didn't get even anywhere near half of their seasons. I think it is a no-brainer for the spring sports athletes. It will be interesting to hear the upcoming dialogue for those winter athletes who had the plug pulled on their seasons. Many seniors simply may want to move on, but I would be supportive of giving those who want to return to have one more season of eligibility for closure purposes. |

Emotional overreaction. Big NO from me.
It's one tournament. It's a global health issue with all major sports affected.
It's very sad and unfortunate but to give another year of eligibility is not the answer.
It will affect a year of recruiting, it will affect the current list and all for a few teams missing out on a couple of games for a small portion of the whole competition.
No. Move on, face reality and bring on next year (C-Virus free of course).

I agree with those on the board who say that BB players have already played out their regular season,therefore no granting another year of eligibility.Sad that they will miss out on post season,but life is not always fair.I also agree that all spring sports that have been cancelled should have a do over if the individual athletes are so inclined. Certainly a unique scenario. If the NCAA does not grant another year of eligibility for those spring sports that have been affected then here is a moment in time when not only the athletes can have a voice but all Universities as well.They can and should stand in solidarity and say to those officials who mandate rules,If you will not grant another year of eligibility we will not play until you resend your decision. This is too big an issue for schools and athletes alike to simply defer to ncaa almighty....

If you grant seniors another year of eligibility, or if you simply write off the season for all spring sports like they never happened, in effect giving every player an extra medical redshirt year, how do you accommodate next falls incoming freshmen in terms of scholarships when the only current players leaving would be those drafted and signed? The argument made by some TV pundits was the NCAA could raise the scholarship limitation for one season only to make room for both carryover seniors and incoming freshmen. The above two thoughts are exactly what the NCAA should do! (but of course they won't do it). They have never given a d--n about the players and they won't start now.
I know this would probably mean the Ducks win the Championship but so be it. It's the right thing to do!

The NCAA announced today they are in favor of giving all spring athletes another year. They are not going to give winter athletes the same because they all played their whole schedule. Playoffs is not a given regular season games are. Seems very reasonable even for the NCAA.
