Impact Justice was granted an extra season of eligibility Thursday, but he won't be with the team Friday due to his wedding day scheduled for Saturday. He seems likely to join the action next Friday versus Memphis.

Camron Justice - Receives additional year of eligibility Justice has received a waiver for an extra year of eligibility from the NCAA and will be able to play immediately.
Impact Justice last played for the team in 2019-20 and worked as a graduate assistant in basketball academics. It's unclear having not played for awhile where he might stack up in the rotation this season, but he certainly will provide some additional leadership on the court.

Zion Harmon - Sits due to personal reasons Harmon did not play in Monday's exhibition against Campbellsville due to personal reasons, Jared MacDonald of the Bowling Green Daily News reports.
Impact Harmon is a consensus four-star recruit that even finds himself in the top-50 of some overall rankings, but it sounds like there are a few obstacles to him suiting up for the Nov. 9 opener against Alabama State. In the meantime, look for second-year guard Dayvion McKnight to man the point for the Hilltoppers, as was the case down the stretch in 2020-21.

Keith Williams - Awaiting eligibility clearance Williams did not play in Monday's exhibition against Campbellsville, as he's awaiting a resolution from the NCAA regarding his eligibility, Jared MacDonald of the Bowling Green Dai...
Impact Williams played four seasons for Cincinnati and was coming off his best scoring year to date, averaging 14.3 ppg for the Bearcats across 23 games (22 starts). He was a late entry to the transfer portal and settled on Western Kentucky in late-August, which likely explains why he wasn't covered under the NCAA's recent blanket rule allowing immediate eligibility for first-time transfers. The NCAA has been pretty liberal with respect to handing out waivers, but in this case, it's unclear if one will arrive prior to the Nov. 9 opener against Alabama State.
