Kerr Kriisa is no longer at Arizona, but his presence may still be felt this season.
The former starting point guard, now at West Virginia, has been suspended nine games by the NCAA for impermissible benefits he received during his time at the UA. His new school released a statement Tuesday stating it learned of “a potential eligibility concern” in August, with Kriisa admitting to the extra benefits.
The UA has yet to comment on the news, including under which head coach the impermissible benefits occurred. Kriisa was recruited to Arizona by Sean Miller, playing for him in 2020-21 before playing for Tommy Lloyd the last two seasons.
