I have been reading a lot of boards and a couple of weeks ago I was dismissing these Hawkins rumours as heresay. They are becoming more intense. Word is that he will not be eligible for the fall semester. Not until January can he play. As long as he can play the second semester and in conference play then I guess this could help with more pt for other guys. But surely this is bad news. A question, if he is not eligible for the next semester then does this mean he could gain an extra half year in the future?

The only thing that truly gives me pause in buying into the Hawkins rumors is I have yet to see on any "credible" site word of the supposed grade problems. Isn't it possible that the rumors are intensifying solely because someone read the rumor on one board, posted it on another, and so on picking up steam all the time? It is very rare that grade troubles EVER escape all media outlets.
I'll remain unconcerned at the moment. In any case, there is nothing worrying can do to resolve the problem if it exists at all.
As for the "extra eligibility" question you raised BBJ, I do not believe that applies to anyone except those "partial qualifiers" that have to sit out their first year (wasn't that Estill's situation?). If they maintain sufficient progress toward their degree and keep grades acceptable, then they regain their fourth year of eligibility. I am not, however, familiar with anyone getting a single semester back (though I could very well be mistaken).

I agree with FBB. Until I get something from a credible source I'm not worried.

A writer from the Cats Pause has said he has heard the rumblings but he said it couldnt be that major that summer school wouldnt be able to take care of. I for one think its true. ED 8)

have not seen Hawk or anything, but should know if he wasn't going to play next semester. Im pretty sure things are alright, Jim. I'll look into it, but I haven't heard anything around here about it. Of course all the students are gone, but I think I would hear something like that and I havent.
