Wisconsin basketball: Micah Potter denied waiver by NCAA

The University of Wisconsin Badgers men’s basketball team received some unpleasant, yet not unexpected, news on Thursday. Junior forward Micah Potter, who transferred from Ohio State last year, will miss the first semester of games as the NCAA denied his waiver request to play immediately.

#Badgers men’s hoops not expected to have OSU transfer Micah Potter until after end of semester. NCAA turned down appeal for immediate eligibility. Shouldn’t be surprised but this one does surprise me.

Potter won’t be eligible to play until Dec.
