Iowa seeking clarity from NCAA on DT Noah Shannon, other student-athletes’ eligibility with gambling penalties

IOWA CITY, Iowa — Iowa officials are seeking clarity from the NCAA as to whether defensive tackle Noah Shannon and other suspended student-athletes can practice with their teams while the organization revamps its penalties associated with gambling, the university announced Thursday. Here’s what you need to know:

Shannon, a sixth-year defensive tackle, was suspended for the season for gambling on an Iowa basketball game earlier this year.
The Hawkeyes appealed on Shannon’s behalf, which the NCAA denied last month to effectively end the two-year starter’s collegiate football career.
