The NCAA has stated it will not grant college eligibility to players who have signed NBA contracts, following backlash over Baylor University's midseason addition of 2023 draft pick James Nnaji. The 21-year-old Nigerian center, selected 31st overall by the Detroit Pistons, never signed an NBA deal and is eligible to play for the Bears. NCAA President Charlie Baker emphasized the need for discretion amid evolving recruitment practices and legal challenges.
