Granger is cleared to play at N. Mexico

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) -- New Mexico forward Danny Granger was cleared by the NCAA to play for the Lobos next season, according to published reports.
New Mexico was found guilty of secondary violations in the events that brought Granger to the school and will face a number of penalties, the Albuquerque Journal and Albuquerque Tribune reported Tuesday.
Granger, who transferred to New Mexico after quitting Bradley University's team in January, is not eligible to play until the second semester because NCAA transfer rules require him to sit out one full year from the time he transferred.
New Mexico coach Ritchie McKay acknowledged in March that assistant coach Duane Broussard violated an NCAA rule that prohibits contact between coaches at one school and athletes at another.
