LUBBOCK, Texas -- Texas Tech forward Pawel Storozynski will be reinstated in two weeks, ending an NCAA suspension in which he was ruled ineligible for playing professionally in Europe.

The 6-foot-8 Pole, a transfer from Dodge City (Kan.) Community College, will be able to play for coach Bob Knight when the Red Raiders visit Houston on Dec. 14.

He faced a potential 11-game NCAA suspension. Texas Tech sought immediate reinstatement but the NCAA handed down a seven-game suspension, athletic director Gerald Myers said Saturday.

Storozynski was ruled ineligible shortly before the season for his professional play. He grew up in France and received educational expenses while in high school there.

Myers has said Storozynski never received money for the one game he played with a French professional team while in high school.

Storozynski is one of about 340 foreign-born college players who have been investigated by the NCAA at 60 Division I schools.
