If a school yanks a player's scholarship, they should immediately become a

"free agent" and should be allowed to talk to any other team or coach they want to.

Hate the NCAA.

Spencer Checketts tweets tonight make Collette look pretty bad.

Only to those hoping he looks bad

And that was admittedly the coach's side of the story. Trush is somewhere in the

I don't have a huge problem with them blocking the transfer

If usu is pulling a scholarship, I don't think we're getting the full story

USU didn't yank his scholarship.

jackcrack7

11/26/15 9:58pm

yes, they did

why the thumbs down on my post? do I have bad info?

HarlemCoug

Collette didn't ever want to play for Dureyea

dixdog

11/26/15 10:05pm

He can say that now...

jackcrack7

11/26/15 10:08pm

By leaving the team he voided the contract

dratax

11/26/15 10:04pm

True, but then he should be able to leave immediately. USU chose its remedy

dixdog

11/26/15 10:06pm

Is someone forcing his to stay enrolled at Utah State?

dratax

11/26/15 10:14pm

Academic Policy is forcing him to stay.

jackcrack7

11/26/15 10:16pm

He chose the timing of the announcement of a decision which apparently had been

He probably still could have made with withdrawal deadline

Why do you say that?

jackcrack7

11/26/15 10:06pm

They took away all aid this semester

dixdog

11/26/15 10:07pm

Do you have any sources saying that he has to pay it all back?

jackcrack7

11/26/15 10:11pm

Looks like if any college picks him up it would be poison

tyroneweaver

11/26/15 10:15pm

regardless of all of this - the kid is an RM and a great baller - I'd love to see him at BYU

HarlemCoug

11/26/15 10:25pm

I don't think that helps the integrity of the program.

tyroneweaver

11/26/15 11:04pm

Why?

Why would BYU want a young man who betrayed all of his teammates and coaches

Rocketman

What about guys who did it a few weeks into the season?

Aytes was completely different. Rice called Rose upon Jamal request.

Good on Rice for looking out for the kid and trying to help him

concolor couguar

11/27/15 8:53am

Agreed. USU faux pas is not letting him talk to other schools.

roseyscenario

11/27/15 9:05am

The Utes could be in trouble but it sounds like Collette was reaching out

concolor couguar

11/27/15 9:28am

Scholarship was for playing ball. Can't imagine any school would not cancel the scholarship.

roseyscenario

11/27/15 9:54am

I don't buy USUs explanation on the roster height thing.

byubyu

11/27/15 9:57am

Maybe so. But i don't see the damage done.

roseyscenario

11/27/15 10:14am

I agree. Not damaging. Just petty and immature by USU.

If they overwrote the image file on the server and reverted just the content...
