This coupled with the DeJuan Morgan fiasco last year does not bode well for our recruiting in Florida.

It's a good thing we've started raiding Pennsylvania & the East Coast for recruits now that we've started torching bridges in Florida.

I wonder if this ruling has any correlation with Ira Guilford rumors that he will be allowed back on the team....

That's too bad, but even you said his GPA dropped and his ACT was too low. There's only so much OSU admissions can do. The blame has to fall on one person, and that is Dennis. Extenuating circumstances can only cover so much of the difference.

What the *&#* is going on?!
This young man was good enough in February. TOSU knew his test scores and his academic ability well enough to offer him a scholarship.
Now, barely 5 months later, after the poor kid has lost his father, they turn their back on him because he had a bad Spring semester!? The institution could take the position that it exists to help young people become good adults. But it doesn't. Instead, it ignores the obvious emotional issues the young man is facing and tells him the scholarship is rescinded. What a *&#*ing joke! |

The only thing I can see that would show our staff as not being in the wrong is if Kennedy's grades dropped so much during the last half of his school year that he no longer academically qualifies grade-wise, or if he took too few classes or flunked a few so that he's not meeting the hours requirement. Bottom line, it had better be purely academic reasons on Kennedy's part.

This situation is very frustrating (as were the snafus with Miles Williams and DeJuan Morgan).
I don't really know where the problem lies (students not performing, coaching staff not communicating, administration acting arbitrarily, some combination thereof...). What makes the situation worse is that we won't get the true story, because the schools can't release any academic info concerning the players (privacy laws).Anyway, best of luck to Dennis - I wish it could have worked out differently. |
