But what if a player that is set to graduate in spring doesn't actually graduate? Too bad for them, should've been better at football? Other players can fail classes and stay on scholarship, but not you?
You're dealing in hypotheticals. My opinion is if you fail classes, you should lose your scholarship regardless of years of eligibility left.
That's good to hear. I wish we waited until they graduated in May to push them off the team. Last few off-seasons showed attrition is difficult to predict.
The best thing for the athlete is to hear as soon as possible so he can start looking for a job. No need to make it public until Spring Practice.
I'm sure that's what happened: CPJ made a decision in December / January, informed the players, signed based on the number of scholarships he had open, then he announced it at Spring Practice.
