Yes, Lexi announced she was transferring to Duke about 3 weeks ago. What happened today is that Duke officially announced its 6 transfers.

The new rules state that even Grad transfers have to sit out for a year the second time. This is mystifying news.

But I'd missed it. Thank you in any event. And good luck to her. Good ball player.

The 6-foot senior from Hurst Bell was a senior this season, but the NCAA did not charge winter-sports athletes a year of eligibility for a season disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

That’s not the issue. This is her second transfer.

Yes, this is her second transfer. As I recall, she sat out 2 semesters when she transferred to Tech from UConn? If you remember, she left during the Christmas break her sophomore year for Tech. The team went to Italy that summer between her freshman and sophomore year. If you remember, they toured the country, saw Geno's birth place, and played 4 games. She became eligible during the holiday break a year later, her Junior year. So, she has already sat out the mandated time for transfers. She should be eligible to play immediately. I'm not an expert on transfer rules, but I believe this to be the case in her case.
