Advantage of their extra year of eligibility granted by the NCAA! It makes perfect sense to me with the sky-high cost of grad school and Raoul is tracking it here:

What's interesting is that graduate schools (always the "poor sister" at an institution) are probably not paying for that scholarship, right? It comes out of the athletic department's budget. And is it the case that teams can carry the players beyond the 15 person limit? Or are they still limited to 15 on scholarship?

Schools were not obligated to maintain scholarships nor to offer more, but the cap was raised ... to 17  ... for schools that wanted the exception and had enough players to accept. |

Carla could have gone after a bunch of these, tempting them with a Princeton MA, and building a one-year super team. |

right....forgot that. but plenty of financial aid, though only need-based.... They also don't tend to do 5th years. They were actually going to boot their seniors that had no season this year since the Ivy League didn't play and refuse to allow them to return, even though certainly the majority still had traditional eligibility (4 in 5 years). The Ivy League had a change of heart, offering a "one time" exemption for this past year's seniors. Agree or disagree, the league believes that athletics are secondary to academics and do not allow athletic issues to drive their policies. Doesn't mean they don't want to win or be competitive, just that they have some major constraints. You have 4 undergraduate years and then you are done. |

You have 4 undergraduate years and then you are done. right. my whole idea was nutsy. they can't get an MA without billing that to the grad school, and no grad school--not even the super richies like Harvard, Stanford, and Princeton--is going to fund (even if they are academically qualified) basketball players. |
