RJ Luis ruled ineligible to play college basketball after SEC decision

RJ Luis, a former Boston Celtics forward, has been deemed ineligible to play college basketball after the Southeastern Conference's new rule prohibits players who signed professional contracts from returning. Initially believed to be returning to LSU, Luis signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Celtics, which led to his disqualification. The NCAA’s recent rule change allowed players more flexibility regarding eligibility, but Luis's professional contract complicates his case. Although he can legally challenge the SEC's ruling, NCAA programs will likely hesitate to take him due to potential penalties.
