Have I missed her destination? If she is enrolled at Somewhere U, she can play next January...correct?
If not...she has to wait for the 2016-2017 season...correct?
I doubt she plays in 2015-2016. She would have had to transferred in January - unless she gets an NCAA wavier, which might be her strategy
I would not say "no shot". Many of us thought the same or Remero situation this same time last year- that she would have to sit out a whole year. It is my understanding that it would be helpful if Duke supported her application to the NCAA for immediate eligibility to play. Not sure Duke would be willing to do that.She has no shot at a waiver - she'll have to sit out next season no matter where she goes.
If she wanted to feel safe she should of came to Uconn where her brother could protect herIIRC that's what I thought she was trying to do (get a waiver because the university was not a "safe" place for her).
With Geno/s, apparent, aversion to transfers and how S>C> performed at Duke do you think Geno would take her?? Question, not a statement. I got the feeling, not facts, that S.C. was self centered the kind that wants to be the whole team, I know nothing except she came from Christ the King HS, Middle Village, Queens, L.I. which usually puts out great players (Sue Bird for example).If she wanted to feel safe she should of came to Uconn where her brother could protect her
Short answer is no. I do not believe Geno would take her today. Many reasons some of which are not within her control, Perantal involvement, Position-she is a Wing and we have two great ones coming in the class of 2015. One reason is entirely within her control- performance. In 13 games at Duke Sierra shot 31% not 31% from the three point line 31 % overall. Among the Starters at duke she was outrebounded by the PG Johnson and the SG Greenwell. In those 13 games Greenwell almost doubled Sierra up in rebounds. At Duke Sierra was a volume shooter and not a very accurate one. This was consistent with a HS evaluation of Sierra which stated: "Her (Calhoun) outside shot is not consistent right now from the perimeter."With Geno/s, apparent, aversion to transfers and how S>C> performed at Duke do you think Geno would take her??

I heard it would be a Big10 school, with Penn State being the one heard most often.
Not sure if that is one of the schools or not.
Question for all NCAA rules experts reference the title of this Thread. Sierra Calhoun played in 13 of Duke's 34 games last year. 13 of 29 if you exclude Duke's ACC and NCAA tournament games. There was no injury involved, is she eligible to get back any part of her eleigibility for her Freshmen year?
I'm no expert, but I'm not aware of her being self centered at all. When she was interested at UCONN, there was a LOT of chatter about how "involved" her father is, and many people commented that Ollie was already experiencing a lot of that, since Sierra's brother, Omar, is on the UCONN men's team. I'm not sure if UCONN backed off recruiting her, or if her interest simply shifted, but there were many rumors about parental requests for "guaranteed starting spot and playing time". We all know how Geno feels about that.With Geno/s, apparent, aversion to transfers and how S>C> performed at Duke do you think Geno would take her?? Question, not a statement.

And how are you so privy to what Geno said to DT's mother?When Geno was recruiting Taurasi.Dianas Mother Lilly was making every excuse she can about her not wanting her daughter to go to UConn. Geno said to her if she went to school close to home made you happy but not Diana for 4 years or would you rather see her come to Connecticut and though you might not like it but Diana will be happy for 4years.(safe to say she was happy)Then he told DTs Mom that we are recruiting Diana not you!Lilly Taurasi later said her daughter made the right choice!
maybe cbraarj is DT's fatherAnd how are you so privy to what Geno said to DT's mother?
