No, not the Kentucky basketball team, a Kentucky basketball team. DIII Thomas More womens' team have been undefeated the last two seasons. Make that one season. A player (and if I lost you with the shameless clikcbait title, can I bring you back in by telling you it's Randy Moss's daughter?) lived with an ex-coach after knee surgery because she couldn't get into her own apartment ie. impermissible benefits.
Here's the story.

Update:
There's a few more details in this story

*******. I clicked so quickly I almost knocked my drink over. What I was to know is what kind of non-ADA compliant apartment was she living in when a trained college athlete can't even access it for 8 months while rehabbing a knee?

Yessssss. I got one. I feel like a useless hacky Buzzfeed content generator.
I would have guessed she lived on campus (there's like one set of apartments on campus and another close by), but if not there's plenty of disheveled old houses (built on hills, tons of stairs, that kind of thing) in the general area that college students could rent. The areas closest to campus would have the kind of houses that you could NOT rent, and even if you could, they wouldn't rent to college kids.
But, like the NCAA is quick to remind everybody, not knowing something is against the rules isn't a valid excuse for breaking the rules. Even if the college is the size of a 5A high school.

My first thought was she was sleeping with the assistant coach and just moved in with him (or her) and they came up with the injury excuse when the NCAA found out about it. That's just a wild *** guess with no basis in it though.

Um...wow this is odd.


- She had a pre-existing relationship with the assistant coach and the school knew that she was living there. They thought it was OK due to that pre-existing relationship. Many here complain about our compliance dept, but if this is what happens when there is a bad compliance dept...
- Sydney Moss does NOT look like what I expected. Not in the least.
- Moss was a 3x D3 national POY. Crazy! I'd figure she could have played at many D1 programs with that talent.
