FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Coach Musselman announced Tuesday that the NCAA denied a waiver for sophomore Connor Vanover to be eligible as a transfer for the 2019-2020 season.
"There’s not many guys his size who can shoot the ball, and he’s a great passer, a willing passer," said Musselman earlier last month.
Questions about Vanover’s eligibility for this season hasn't looked positive for a while now.
"I think we’re all approaching [the new season] like he’s in a development year and he’s not playing," said Musselman.
Vanover will redshirt the 2019-20 season and have three years of eligibility remaining, a press release says.
