I am sure you have read the DeAndre Liggins’ recruitment situation with Kentucky and his AAU coach.
Everyone found out from ESPN why Liggins had to set out 9 games at the beginning of the 2009-10 season, and it was thought that the NCAA required him to sit out that many.
That doesn’t look to be exactly true.

Alan Cutler of LEX18 contacted Dwayne Peevy, Kentucky’s Associate Athletic Director and who is in charge of the Media Department, says something a little different.

“It was the University of Kentucky’s choice to withhold DeAndre Liggins from competition at the start of the 2009-10 season while eligibility questions were being resolved,” DeWayne Peevy, UK’s Senior Associate AD/Communications sent via email.
“Once they were resolved the number of games we voluntarily withheld him from was considered sufficient. The original withholding was not mandated by the NCAA.”
