The end of the semester is upon us. Grades, in any college sport, is a topic that is rarely discussed but it is reality.
Do we have any players that might not be eligible to play?
One, possibly two, players are “struggling” and need to get some big test scores in order to participate the second part of the season.
With everything that has happened over the last few years with this program this is not what BG needs.
Let’s hope these guys turn it around!

If there's one thing that Dakich does well is keeping his players eligble, and making them graduate. This will not be a problem.

This should be a private matter. Whoever is your source should keep it to themself. I'm glad this was you're 4th post!

It sounded more like a question to me (meaning I don't think this person had a source). Either way, though, this isn't something that a fan of this program should be worried about, and it is in many ways wrong to ask it in such a public forum. We have a very lagre infrastructure within the AD to not only manage academic eligibility, but also to assist student athletes in reaching their academic goals while maintaining a rigorous athletic schedule. It sounds to me like this guy is looking for a problem where there isn't one just for the "I told you so!" edge should something potentially happen, which is pretty sh**ty.

Let's not over-react, guys. He simply heard a that we might have a player or two struggling in the classroom and is concerned about the team.

It's no one's business here who's eligible and who's not.

Then it's a good thing he/she didn't mention names, isn't it?
