WWE NIL signee Haley Cavinder has revealed where she will return for her final season of college basketball. As previously reported, Haley — who is part of the NIL system at WWE along with her twin Hanna — had announced that she would be returning to basketball for her fifth and final year of eligibility. Haley posted to Instagram to reveal that she has committed to TCU, where she will play next season.
Haley spoke and Hannah with Business of College Sports for an interview that was recorded before her decision was announced about returning to basketball. The article notes that Hanna will not be joining Haley on the team. You can see a couple of highlights from the discussion below:
Hanna on her decision to step away from basketball: “I think going into deciding whether we were going to take our fifth year or not, we kind of were leaning on each other. We’ve always done everything together, so it kind of just made sense. I was just kind of ready to tie the shoes up, and I had different ambitions outside of basketball, but that was kind of my decision to step away.”
Haley on deciding to take her fifth year: “I think ending it with Hanna and announcing that we were done and not going to take our fifth year, I felt—honestly, to be very transparent—a lot of pressure. There was nothing filling the love for the game, and I just truly was like, I know I’m going to regret it down the road if I don’t go back.”
