It has been a long five months for college basketball. The FBI's investigation into a pay-for-play scandal involving shoe companies has been hovering overhead like a tornado cloud. And on the ground, this season has been defined by pivotal injuries, disappointing teams and one national championship vacated because of a scandal from a previous season.
But we finally got some good news Thursday afternoon.
Michael Porter Jr. is coming back!
(Maybe.)
Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports broke the news:
It's important to note that getting "fully cleared for all basketball activities" doesn't necessarily mean Porter will play again.
