VCU hopes to regain year of eligibility for junior college transfer

A week ago VCU head coach Will Wade added another piece to his front court rotation in the form of junior college transfer Ahmed Hamdy Mohamed, who averaged 16.2 points and 10.7 rebounds per game at Lee College in Texas last season. Mohamed was ruled to have two seasons left to play at VCU, but the school is hopeful that an appeal will result in the 6-foot-10 power forward getting a third season.

According to the Richmond Times-Dispatch, Wade stated earlier this week that an appeal will be filed on Mohamed’s behalf over a mistake the player said was made due to bad advice received from a mentor.
