Basketball phenom DeMarcus Cousins has been held out of the LeFlore Rattlers' last three games while school officials attempt to confirm that there are no issues with his eligibility. Cousins, a 6-foot-10 forward who is rated among the top juniors in the country and is being heavily recruited by Louisville, transferred to LeFlore from the Birmingham area this school year.
LeFlore coach Otis Hughley said Cousins' move to Mobile has been confirmed as a bona fide move, but school officials in Birmingham have raised questions about his standing before the transfer. Hughley said he expects Cousins to be back on the floor soon. "All we have to do is make sure he's in good standing from one (school) system to another," Hughley said. "And just to make sure that's the case, we want it in writing." In two games with the Rattlers, Cousins scored 19 points in a win over Vigor and 27 in a win over McGill-Toolen.
