Exactly.  And that's what makes this whole Melo deal bizarre as hell.  Kids play in the tourney all the time who have not been going to class much if at all in the 2nd semester.  Only at Syracuse would a player be suspended by the school mid 2nd semester.  My guess is after the first suspension they put him on some sort of plan and he failed to meet the requirements so they booted him.
 
Say goodbye to Noel.  Why would he come here and be subjected to extra academic guidelines than he would have to deal with at Kentucky or by the NCAA.  At UK, he will simply have to pass enough credits in the 1st semester and then he can bail on school completely, play in the tournament and turn pro.
 
And please save the Syracuse is an academic institution replies blah blah blah.  Your kidding yourselves if you think these kids come to school to learn.  They come to play basketball.  And if they can do that somewhere without having to try in the classroom, they will.
