MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – West Virginia University interim men's basketball head coach Josh Eilert announced today that Omar Silverio's appeal for a waiver request to play this season has been denied by the NCAA.
"I know Omar is disappointed that he won't be able to compete this season as a Mountaineer and that his collegiate career is over," Eilert said. "He is a wonderful person, and I know he will be successful in whatever career path he chooses. All of us enjoyed our time with him, and we wish him well."
