ISU G Bubu Palo says he might petition NCAA for 6th year of eligibility
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Iowa State senior guard Bubu Palo says he might petition the NCAA for a hardship waiver that would allow him to transfer to another school and play one more season.
Palo missed much of 2013-14 after being dismissed from the team following sexual assault charges that were later dropped. Palo was reinstated by a district court judge in January, but he hasn't played this season.
Palo says he and coach Fred Hoiberg have discussed the possibility of a waiver, adding that he might sit out Saturday's home finale against Oklahoma State to aid those efforts.
