MURFREESBORO, Tenn. - Middle Tennessee freshman guard Antwaun Boyd has been cleared by the NCAA Clearinghouse and declared eligible, Blue Raider Head Coach Kermit Davis has announced.
Boyd (6-2, 190), a heralded member of Middle Tennessee's 2007 signing class, will take a redshirt season in 2007-08. He was enrolled at Middle Tennessee as a part-time student in the fall but could not participate in team activities. He was granted partial eligibility by the NCAA following the fall semester and was able to begin practicing with the team while his case was being appealed by Middle Tennessee.
The NCAA informed Middle Tennessee Compliance Director Mike Moletta that Boyd had been cleared earlier this week.
