OU football: Nick Basquine granted sixth year of eligibility

Oklahoma wide receiver Nick Basquine has won his NCAA appeal granting him a sixth year of eligibility, coach Lincoln Riley announced Tuesday night.

The former Norman North standout redshirted in 2014. He suffered a season-ending Achilles injury prior to the 2017 season, and the newly-granted year of eligibility will replace that lost season.

Basquine caught seven passes for 134 yards last season. He has 27 career receptions for 399 yards and two touchdowns.
