๐จ No Evidence of โBanโ on Cornhuskers Center Alexis Markowski by Coach Amy Williams
LINCOLN, Neb. โ A wave of unverified social media posts recently claimed that Nebraska womenโs basketball coach Amy Williams issued a โbanโ on star center Alexis Markowski, prohibiting her from team activities. But a full review of credible sources reveals this rumor is entirely unfounded.
A post in a private Facebook group stirred the controversy, stating: *โThe NFL has completely suspended Alexis Markowski from all footballโrelated activities by the Nebraska Cornhusker womenโsโฆโ* . Besides being vague and inaccurately mixing football and basketball, it lacks any official confirmation.
In contrast, established outlets such as Sports Illustrated and university press releases focus on Markowskiโs graduation, senior status, and departure from eligibility, with no mention of disciplinary action . In fact, SI notes her status simply as a โdeparting seniorโ who finished her eligibilityโnothing about a suspension or exclusion .
Markowskiโs onโcourt performance further contradicts the ban narrative. She posted standout numbers in recent games, including a careerโhigh 28 points in February and a leading presence in a major NCAA tournament upset over Texas A&M .
Coach Williams, meanwhile, has recently been focused on staff realignmentโpromoting personnel like Amanda Hart and Taylor Edwardsโwithout any indication of misconduct or benching of players .
Bottom line: The claim that Amy Williams has banned Alexis Markowski is baseless, resting solely on anonymous chatter lacking any journalistic value. Official reports, team statements, and game records show Markowski completing her senior year with strong performances, respected by her coach and institution.
Until any credible evidence emerges, this โbanโ should be treated as nothing more than an internet rumor. Fans can instead celebrate Markowskiโs achievements and Williamsโ continued leadershipโboth untainted by controversy.
