I hesitated to report this story when I first saw it this morning, but I’m sure most of you have seen it by now as it has quickly become national news. The Sporting News reported late last night that Mouphtaou Yarou may have eligibility concerns because of questions surrounding his real age.
That quickly sent ‘Nova Nation into a state of panic.
(Not me, I was on my 3rd glass of wine and was completely clueless. IBBW, your #1 source for breaking news)
Anyways, Dana O’Neil talked with Jay Wright today who is reporting that Yarou has been cleared and is good to go for Friday’s opener against Fairleigh Dickinson. In fact, it appears that Yarou never even played in the tournament in question. Solid reporting, TSN. Way to give everyone a heart attack.
So everyone take a deep breath. It appears that everything is okay.
