One of the great mysteries about the NCAA is how they decide on waiver decisions when it comes to underclassmen transferring.
At times it can feel like their decisions are erratic, their method is ambiguous, and hey, sometimes even when they make the “right” (or popular?) decision it can take months on end and their efficiency is put into question.
For that reason it was fascinating when, only a couple of weeks after announcing he was transferring from Kentucky to UCLA, Johnny Juzang was granted immediate eligibility.
Juzang was a freshman for the Wildcats last year who came off the bench and wasn’t really in their core group of contributors.
