Well this could go a number of ways, like mentioned he's got a free pad and stuff so why not hang out and enjoy the college life a little longer and not have to go to class...
 
or
 
the optimist in me is thinking maybe he and Boeheim had little heart to heart about finishing out semester (even if not in good academic standing) being able to train at Melo center, etc do what is needed to prepare for the draft but also stay in school and not totally kill our APR (maybe get 1 of 2 pts at least out of him).  Maybe this is part of why Boeheim was saying he didn't let team down etc (kissing a little butt trying to make sure he finishes semester).  In the press conference Boeheim was saying how he does everything he can to make sure a player stays and finishes school work but it is kind of selfish of him (Boeheim) to try to get them to do that versus get more specialized training elsewhere, but this is more of a situation where Melo could hurt the team in more ways than one (this year and future yr's) so by finishing school year it would be the stand up thing to do and at least partially make up for him being ineligible. Just a thought but who knows...
