Virginia Tech freshman forward Landers Nolley hasn't been cleared by the NCAA. Nolley's high school coach Rory Welsh of Langston Hughes High School in Fairburn, Georgia, told The Roanoke Times the issue involves Nolley's high school ACT score. While Nolley had the ACT score and high school GPA to meet NCAA requirements, the NCAA was skeptical of his ACT score.
