First, as always, the news:
JUST IN: Xavier has announced that its three men's basketball players have been cleared to end their quarantine and Adam Kunkel's waiver has been approved by the NCAA.
The Musketeers will have Kunkel, Colby Jones and CJ Wilcher available on Sunday for the Crosstown Shootout.— Adam Baum (@AdamJBaum) December 5, 2020I'm going to try not to focus on how senseless any of this is, so let's get that out of the way first. It makes no sense that Adam Kunkel had to wait to hear if he could hoop this year when the reasonable thing to do this season would have been for the NCAA to give every kid a waiver.
