The NCAA once again denied a waiver for DeAndre Williams to play this season at Memphis keeping the oldest player in Division I last season off coach Penny Hardaway's roster. Memphis confirmed the denial Friday.
“We are extremely disappointed a waiver for an additional year of eligibility for DeAndre Williams was denied, which came following a request for reconsideration of the initial denial and then an appeal,” Memphis said in a statement.
“Unfortunately, after multiple months of back-and-forth, the NCAA arrived at a different conclusion,” Memphis said in the statement.
