NCAA committee proposes barring prospective athletes if they opt into and remain in a pro draft

After two high-profile cases in basketball this season, the NCAA Division I Cabinet will consider proposed changes to eligibility rules — including one that would bar athletes who have entered and remained in a professional sports draft from competing in college. The Academics and Eligibility Committee proposed the changes Wednesday, and the cabinet could take action within weeks. The new rules, if approved, would be effective for athletes entering college this fall.
