they are not keeping her there. She is free to go whenever she is ready.


Daisha: So, I can go to school for free near my family and finish out my basketball career.

Alabama: Nah. First, just to be clear, you absolutely can't get your MBA at Alabama. We don't want you and won't help you get in. Now that that's clear, you also can't go and play at another school you might get in to. You'll have to stay at that school for two more years, and hope that they will extend you a scholarship in the interim and the NCAA will grant you a sixth year of eligibility. But, you're free to go. I don't see why you're bitching about that. Do whatever you want. The decision is really easy. No one is holding a gun to your head.

See it isn't being held to your head.

Yeah, totally fair. Why would anyone be disturbed by this?

The NCAA has denied her twice, right?

Because she didn't qualify for the program. I'm assuming she didn't make a 600 or above on her GMAT.

They wanted to place her in a sport's management or marketing graduate program, which has lower requirements.

That's a given seeing as the MBA program is two years. If that's what she was most interested in, it shouldn't matter what year she was eligible. It'd take two years to graduate regardless.
