Any athlete will admit that it is a colossal commitment to play at the collegiate level, but for DePaul men’s basketball players Austin Grandstaff and Max Strus, that commitment comes with sitting on the bench for a season.
According to NCAA rules, players who transfer from one four-year college to another must spend a whole academic year in residence at their new school before being allowed to play for the team or receive travel expenses. While some athletes may see this as a disadvantage, the DePaul men’s basketball transfers are taking full advantage of their situation.
