UConn transfer Espinoza-Hunter waits patiently for chance with MSU

She left in December 2017. I thought she would be eligible in December 2018, even if she went to community college instead of MSU. Are you saying she is not eligible until November 2019?

Here’s the applicable NCAA transfer rule:

“You must complete one academic year in residence before you can compete at a new school.”

The fall semester will be AEH’s 1st at MSU, with the spring semester of 2019 completing one academic year in residence. She will not be eligible to compete until the fall of 2019.

Yes she left in Dec 17, but she did not enroll at MSU in Jan/Feb. If she had, yes, she would be eligible Dec 18.

Thanks to you and VG. I didn't know the rule required 1 year in residence. I thought it was just 1 year away from the sport.

In this case, the article was even more premature than I thought.

Andra just made her debut. Struggled from behind the arc a little bit. Didn’t play as much as she would have if she would be eligible next year
