Solo Ball’s Eligibility and Recovery | College Basketball News

NCAA’s new eligibility rule is shaking up UConn’s men’s basketball plans, especially for guard Solo Ball. Under the new policy, players who miss a season still retain all four years of eligibility — meaning Ball doesn’t gain anything by sitting out this year. Already having played three seasons, he has two more years left and could theoretically play just a few games before returning in 2027-28. But his health remains the real issue: Ball struggled last season due to a lingering wrist injury, and coach Dan Hurley confirmed he’s still in a full cast and not even close to playing. Recovery is the priority — any return to the court is on hold until he’s fully healed. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
