Lady Penguins Battle but Drop Heart-breaker at Wright State, 70-67

<< < (2/2)

HLecter:
On the "dead weight" issue:

can't he (Boldon) just non-renew the scholarships?  I understand the image that puts up, but if they are not "his" recruits, does that make it OK?

Old guy speaking now and this might be out-dated or not needed anymore, but we used to require players to watch televised games, 3-4 a week at least to get them some "basketball IQ".  Whether this would work in the facebook era is questionable.  It has to be done early in high school though.

Wick250:
Lecter,

NCAA scholarships must be renewed every year.  So Boldon could pull them, but, to our credit, the university has rarely done that.  In this case, it is not the girls' fault that Hill and Martin misinterpreted their talent level and brought them here.  They have a right to earn their degrees on the university's nickel.  However, once next years juniors and seniors (except for Brown) understand that the incoming freshmen will get most of the playing time, they might freely elect to transfer down to D2 or D3 where they might be able to contribute.

ItalianPenguin:
Wick is right, we rarely pull schollies. That being said, I believe Boldon has free reign to do what he feels is necessary, so don't be surprised if he pulls some. He's not the kind to sit around and wait to improve. The only problem with that is bringing in TOO MANY kids at the same time. He may hang on to a schollie or two for 2012-2013.
