Keyshawn Hall Gets TRO, Now Eligible for St. John’s Basketball

With the start of the season for the St. John’s Red Storm right around the corner, the team will be hoping to take another step forward this year. However, there are a lot of questions about who will actually be able to play.

Since the arrival of Rick Pitino, the Red Storm have been a completely different program; in three years, he has been able to win two Big East titles, and the team has been at 30+ wins as well.

With Hall getting the TRO, this will make him eligible, and he can practice with the team as the season quickly approaches. The regular season kicks off for St. John’s on November 2nd against Monmouth University, and all of this eligibility stuff needs to be figured out and resolved soon.
