I have the same scenario in my classroom. A DI basketball talent who will be going the JUCO route because of a lack of academic focus. I hope Josh can get his academics straightened out and find success in the future. |

Well I don't believe we can go that far, quite yet. To qualify for admission to Ohio State the criteria are clear. Josh earlier had the GPA needed for smooth sailing (3.2). Getting back in line before August '05 is not outside the realm of possibility.

i certainly hopes josh gets things worked out and gets into OSU..but i have to think the coaches are probably preparing a back up plan incase he doesn't

I wonder if this has anything to do with the sliding scale regarding ACT scores and gpa. If he obtained a ACT score that was okay for a 3.2 but not a 3.0 or lower, could this be the problem. So he could potentially still be eligible to play basketball and carry a good GPA, but his test score wouldn't be sufficient for college sports.

Not sure about that:
Core class #1: D (1.00)
Core class #2: D (1.00)
Core class #3: D (1.00)
Core class #4: D (1.00)
Elective Class: F (0.00)
Cumulative GPA: 0.8

Wasn't he looking at MSU early in his recruitment? What are the odds he switches to MSU where they have a pretty good (although not Buckeye good) for both sports.
