Parsa Fallah’s NCAA Eligibility Gamble
from Oklahoma State Cowboys Basketball News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Oklahoma State’s basketball team is holding onto its last scholarship spot for redshirt senior Parsa Fallah, who tore his ACL in February and would normally be ineligible to play again. Instead of a standard injury waiver, Fallah is seeking an extra year of eligibility based on delays he faced when first arriving in the U.S.—including a six-month embassy process in Africa. Coach Steve Lutz confirmed they’re keeping the spot open while the NCAA reviews the request, a calculated gamble given recent precedent allowing sixth or even seventh-year eligibility. If approved, Fallah could be a major asset once healthy; if not, the team can pivot to a new recruit or transfer without penalty. This case underscores the complex, often unexpected hurdles international athletes face in college sports. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
