This is what happened to shy. 2 weeks before school started the staff called the school to talk schedule. They found SHY had classes that the ncaa considered duplicate of previous years. You need 4 years of math and 4 years of english. But each year must not repeat the former. So in SHY's case a class he was taking his senior year was the same ( or the NCAA considered it the same) as one he had passed sophmore year. Also shy was forced to take 2 english senior year because he failed freshman year so he had to take the same type ofclass as freshman year over plus a new senior year one. Also in SHYs case he had failed science sophmore year but had taken summer school. The NCAA wouldnt recognize his summer class because in mass summer school is pass fail ncaa requires a grade assigned to be reflected on the gpa. The guidance counselours new what mass required but had never delt with a division one player trying to make eligibilty. To her credit she worked her ass off with the staff to learn it change his schedule and get him where he needed to be. The eligibilty for the ncaa isnt easy to understand but they need guidlines to prevent PRIME TIME academy from just taking kids to their school and passing them thru bogus course IE North Carolina
