Story summary

The eligibility case for Babacar Sane, a 6-foot-8 player for St. John’s, was delayed after a judge's decision to allow additional witnesses in a future hearing. On Monday, Judge Karina E. Alomar did not rule on the case and instead asked Sane’s attorneys, Elliot Sol Abrams and Kareem R. Vesssup, if they wanted to bring more witnesses to further argue their case at a later date. The next injunction hearing, where witnesses will be present, is scheduled for Nov. 9. The NCAA did not object to this delay.
