## Resource

#WestVirginia #Big12 #WVU The NCAA’s proposed new “5-for-5” eligibility model may have just changed EVERYTHING for WVU basketball… and the news is NOT sounding great for Brenen Lorient. In today’s episode of Locked On West Virginia, we break down the NCAA’s latest eligibility proposal, why Lorient’s chances at returning suddenly look VERY slim, and why Javan Buchanan’s situation may still be COMPLETELY alive because of his NAIA years. But this goes WAY deeper than just eligibility. What happens to Ross Hodge’s roster if BOTH guys are unavailable? Does Miles Sadler suddenly become one of the most important players on the entire team IMMEDIATELY? How much pressure would fall on: 🔥 Finley Bizjack 🔥 Mouhamed Sylla 🔥 Martin Somerville 🔥 the freshman class 🔥 the entire roster structure? We also dive into: potential NCAA lawsuits NIL implications why the NCAA may be trying to draw a hard line before legal chaos explodes and why WVU may quietly believe Buchanan STILL has a path. This is one of the biggest offseason developments yet for West Virginia basketball. #WVU #WestVirginia #Mountaineers #WVUBasketball #BrenenLorient #JavanBuchanan #RossHodge #MilesSadler #NCAA #CollegeBasketball #Big12 #LockedOnWVU Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
