What summer is it that the team is eligible to take another trip? If it's this summer, then I'd go with the under; else the over.

CRW pulled a scollie so he could use it for someone else. The scollie was 'returned' the next year. SoV named the player a few weeks ago, but I am not sure there is much gained by continuing to regurgitate the name. I was interested so I went back and identified the player SoV mentioned. If you take the time to do that, Google him and see how incredibly well he has done for himself. He passed the CPA exam, earned a joint JD/MBA at Michigan, and is now working for a major international law firm doing fancy investment products work. Obviously, not every athlete requires help in admissions We can be extremely proud of this student as I also read his bio and, as alum states, he has done very well academically and professionally. A true student athlete from HC realizes much success.

That answers one question Hargis is next Yes, I think that answers it . . . . Although I do recall the many hundreds of times when PL football players had similar signing ceremonies when the league did not even offer football scholarships.

Presumably those former football signings were not to a National Letter of Intent as this seems to be.

Presumably those former football signings were not to a National Letter of Intent as this seems to be. On many occasions the articles said these PL football players were signing a letter of intent or signing a scholarship agreement. In reality, they were signing something else - maybe an agreement on need-based aid, maybe some sort of letter of acceptance, maybe something else. There were literally hundreds of those sorts of ceremonies over the years for PL football players who were not getting scholarships. Perhaps thousands.

I have been amused in recent years to see kids going to D3 schools having signing ceremonies. Little did I know that the NCAA, in a nod to the participation trophy era, has provided a form for them to sign, too. www.ncaa.org/division-iii-celebratory-signing-form

Almost certainly Hargis will sign and with the Verbeek signing likely two and certainly one more shoes/shoe to drop. CBC wasn’t kidding in that pre-game with Lutsk.

Ridiculous that we still don't know whose scholarships these two are taking.

I think we have three or four scholarships available for 2018. If we only signed two players that means we have one or two holdover scholarships. And my long history of watching college basketball especially at our level I don’t see coaches on our level wanting to wait to pull the trigger on a scholarship. Does Bill Carmody have a five-year plan? I doubt it. I believe he has to win now so the idea of him carrying a scholarship or two over just doesn’t make sense to me. I’m wondering if of those Two extra scholarships have not become officially available yet and that’s why we haven’t heard anything about recruits three and four. Just a thought. I will be at the baseball games this weekend. I will try to find out.

This feels like it has a lot more to do with trying to hide the embarrassment (anyone’s contract up for renewal soon?) than any type of privacy laws.

Do you want the school to issue a press release that says “We kicked two kids off our basketball team and now have some open scholarships. There names are X and Y and here’s what they did . . .”? Would be a very uncommon press release.
