Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't foreign trips only allowed once every four years?

If so, wouldn't Calipari's comments about "working on defense and physicality instead of taking trips to the Bahamas" be more lip service?

To be clear: I think the trip to the Bahamas was great given Oscar's situation and the NIL landscape, so I'm not complaining about when it was used, I'm just questioning the authenticity of Cal's comments if there are limits on the frequency of these trips.

If it is the case, I'm also wondering what allowed the Canada trip this past season and if it's a fairly open loophole that could be used again, in which case the comments make more sense.

Was the Canada trip some type of exception and/or were there other exceptions (possibly for COVID)? Or am I just misinformed about a rule that doesn't apply?

Anyone care to elaborate?
