Two former NBA G-league players are now in college basketball (and eligible)

Haven't guys in the G-League been in college already or am I mistaken on that? Either way, it sounds like they might need to sit down and discuss what to do moving forward. Although knowing the NCAA....lol.

Are college players still required to attend classes? I remember way way back when colleges would lose a players around now due to a failing grade. Is that a thing anymore? 

Nope.

 

I've got a brother that works as an academic advisor with a high D1 program. One of the unsaid things is that now that there is this huge financial investment through lucrative NIL packages, them failing a class and becoming ineligible while making $1M+ is simply not an option. I don't believe since NIL became a thing do I remember any athlete being declared academically ineligible. Technically, I guess its possible but those academic advisors would probably be fired if one of their athletes failed a class and became ineligible so in that sense I'm not sure that it is possible anymore.
