From CHAT GPT - re: playing in January FWIW.  Would likely not be able to play Sr., year, if we even think he will be here that long.

[B]General Rule[/B]: A high school graduate who enrolls full-time in college [B]within 1 year of high school graduation[/B] maintains their eligibility [I]clock[/I] (the 5-year clock for D-I, 10 semesters for D-II). But playing [I]immediately[/I] in January depends on other factors:

[LIST]
[*][B]Must be a qualifier per NCAA standards[/B]: This includes GPA, core courses, and standardized test scores (SAT/ACT) requirements.
[*][B]Must enroll full-time in college in January[/B].
[*][B]Must be on the team’s roster and cleared by the NCAA Eligibility Center[/B].
[/LIST]

⚠️ [B]Winter sports like basketball[/B] have specific start dates. The NCAA basketball season typically begins in [B]November[/B], so a [B]January enrollee[/B] could [B]join mid-season[/B], assuming all other requirements are met. However, the coach/school must choose to roster the student mid-season, which isn't guaranteed.
