Isn't Kaczor a sophomore in '06? Depends on who you ask. It was her second year as a college student, but it remains to be seen if she was considered a soph or junior in '06. There's a possibility that she'll only have three (combined JC/4yr) years of eligibility because of the "participation after the 21st birthday" rule. 2007 may be her last year, or USC might try to petition the NCAA to waive the rule. |

Will the new NCAA foreign amature clearinghouse help to eliminate these questions of eligibility? They should be able to decide who is pro and who is not and how many years they have left when coming to the states.

We thought UCLA was done recruiting, but it turns out they have one scholarship remaining. Probably for Murray. Arizona had three scholarships and has three committments. I'm guessing they are done. Florida has one remaining scholarship. Nebraska fans, do you have one more, or are you done?USC fans, two committments any left? Washington? California? Wisconsin? Any other top 25 program? With Brooke Bartek leaving for Kentucky, I'm not sure if this free's another scholarship for Nebraska this cycle or not. Trying to get volleyball recruiting info at any of the husker boards is a shot in the dark. Huskers.com of course can't comment on unsigned recruits. |

My guess is that it frees up athletic departments from institutional blame for failure to uncover previous professional experience. A student-athlete who is eventually found to have professional experience will probably be treated as any other "ineligible player". It's probably not going to change the application (and waiver process) of the "21st birthday" rule. I guess the big thing is that it levels the playing field from differences in resources among athletic departments. Researching playing histories of international recruits can be very labor and time intensive, and requires a lot of connections. |
