But Self is on record that the decision was not on his schedule, it was on someone else’s schedule. So if not the NCAA’s, whose?
Did Billy need to do something to solve the matter before Self will reinstate him?
Has he done it, and is Self waiting to spring him on Boeheim on Saturday?
Or is he - or whoever - in the process of completing whatever needs to be done to solve the matter in time for him to play on Dec 6 against Washington?
Inquiring minds want to know... but that’s all we have for now...

Still no leaks either. Have I missed anything out there?

I do note that the official roster on KUAthletics.com now lists #55 James Sosinski.

Not encouraging news at all.
In truth, at this point no news is bad news.

Of interest to me is the comment that the case has not yet gone to the NCAA... and Self's comment that once it does there will be a quick turnaround.
Yeah, he's optimistic, all right.

Includes a bit on DeSousa. Self feels the big stumbling block (my words, not his) is not his test scores. It's more a matter of getting some still incomplete stuff from Angola, which I interpret as core course info and grades.

Absolutely nothing being reported anywhere on this -- KUSports.com, JayhawkSlant, KC Star, etc. -- as I write this
Guess we'll see if there is any truth in it soon enough.
In the meantime -- beat the Huskers!
Rock Chalk!
