It's crazy though trying to equate a year of high school in Nigeria to a year in the US when the student has to even learn the language. How many US students enter college after 4 years of high school, then prep school? I believe Bishop Kearney had Chinoso play only 3 years of high school ball despite his 4 years there so he certainly didn't take an extra year to get an athletic advantage. They penalized him for bettering his academics to prepare for college. As Jay Bilas said in Chinoso's defense the NCAA is saying "So… spend an extra year in HS and go to college but lose a year of eligibility…. or don’t spend the extra year in HS, fail to graduate, and then not attend college."
