Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 159549, member: 716"] This should be added to every post about last night's game. It's a little surprising that more isn't being made of this; perhaps everyone recognizes that Notre Dame should be very beatable even without Fab, or maybe everyone is just being kind. But this is Fab's loss. Why doesn't this happen to Duke? Why didn't Stevie Thompson, Craig Forth, or Arinze ever find themselves in this situation? How does Matt Lyde-Cajuste, with the same basketball time demands as Fab, manage to get by as a Dean's List student with an aerospace engineering major? Scholarship basketball players are allowed to take the very easiest courses, have a generously low minimum standard to meet, and are given the benefit of tutors and academic support staff to help them with everything. There's no excuse for a player losing eligibility for an academic problem. He let his teammates down in a big way. [/QUOTE]
