[j66kicker]

...graduated high school, enrolled at UCLA, and joined the team immediately. Close says they need the guard depth and are trying to get her ready for the next game.

So, does Dominique get an extra year, in effect having a 4 1/2 year career? (I'm still not certain of what that NCAA ruling for fall and winter sports does. Is the extra year for seniors or everyone?)

That said, looks like she's left Blair Academy in the rear-view mirror. BTW, she's the running mate of one Olivia Miles...hmm, maybe she might want to come to ND early, too?

I saw another 2021 reclassify as a 2020 for Western Michigan recently as well. I'm assuming this would have to have been done by a certain timeframe for it to happen.

If Miles has the grades and courses, I'd assume it was considered but who knows what her situation is? ND isn't struggling for players like UCLA is (number of that is). With at least 4 players not on campus, Darius being able to move up her enrolment date is a huge help.

This year is a freebie for all players, regardless of classification.

Olivia might as well enroll at ND because it appears athletics at Blair is in limbo and probably awaiting direction from the state or the MAPL conference. I've written about Dominique before she is very talented and the perfect Robin to a team that has a Batman.

- Given how the lead guard by committee approach is(n't) working for the Irish, might as well get Ms. Miles out to the Irish this season and jump start the retooling. Wonder how Ms. Citron is doing with her schoolwork?

- I remember a few of your posts on Dominique....gave me some fine insights into her game.

Looks like Washington has just done this as well w/ Jess Finney from Phoenix area.
