95% chance he's eligible. I'd like a some of the more knowledgeable Memphis guys to weigh in here but my understanding is that the issue isn't anything NCAA related, it's just that his handler is fricking retarded and set up a school for the express purpose of Skal playing basketball. The TN high school athletic governing body didn't allow it (shocker) and so he couldn't play TN high school basketball this year. But he's academically fine, apparently.

I think he'll be eligible. Skal is from Haiti and his 'guardian' here, Gerald Hamilton, has been trying to pimp him out since his freshman year of high school. Including multiple high schools and AAU teams. He basically went around telling coaches that a donation to his 'foundation' is the only way Skal would play for them, and that all contact had to go through Hamilton and not Skal.
Hamilton is a complete and total amateur in that regard, but unless they can make a direct connection between a donation to his foundation and Kentucky or improper contact with an agent, he should be in the clear.
Great player, great kid, shady and sloppy 'guardian'.

10%
Because he made up a whole high school. This isn't a few shady documents, it's a whole fake damn high school.

Everything we've heard as of late is he'll sit a handful of games. But I don't think anyone really knows. I will say he seems pretty confident he'll be eligible and I'd imagine if he wasn't he would've just went ahead and went overseas.
