Declared Academically Ineligible: The UConn Huskies men’s basketball team will be down one player for the rest of the season as Charles Okwandu has been declared academically ineligible. He can practice with the Huskies but can’t suit up for games nor travel with the team. “I am grateful for the opportunity to continue to be a part of the team while I re-focus on my academics,” Okwandu said in a statement. “I know with hard work and the support of my coaches and teammates that I will be successful in the classroom and be able to rejoin the team next season.” [Matt’s UConn men’s basketball blog]
