Summary

Treysen Eaglestaff, a former standout at the University of North Dakota, has announced plans to enter the transfer portal for a fifth year of college basketball eligibility. This comes after one season at West Virginia, where he averaged 9.8 points and 4.6 rebounds across 35 games. A recent court ruling granted some athletes a fifth season, but the NCAA has clarified that not all athletes, particularly those outside the current transfer portal window, may benefit. Eaglestaff's situation could be further complicated as West Virginia's roster is nearly at its limit, with another player, Brenen Lorient, seeking a similar eligibility extension.
