Kasongo dealing with eligibility issues (one game suspension)

[bleedingTNorange]

That's why he didn't participate in the scrimmage against Davidson per VQ...

New As I noted in previous post on scrimmage Ray Kasongo did not take part. In inquiring as to why discovered that he has an eligibility issue that Tennesee is dealing with. Right now he is cleared to practice but not cleared for competition.

I don't have any details on timetable but it's a transcript issue that Tennessee hopes to have resolved shortly.

Damn

If you knew why didn't you say so in other thread instead of making a mountain out of a molehill?

Typical news for UT

 

[AuntieDee]

Yes always something.

 

[volakil]

Just when you thought it was safe to go in the water..

 

[AuntieDee]

Why would you bring not one but two guys in with eligibility issues?

Because the previous coach didn't leave much talent or many options, Barnes had to reach a bit.

Not a good answer. Doesn't say much for his recruiting either As others have posted.

Or he made poor choices of the ones to bring in

That's the case in my opinion.

Glad he didn't pass on Turner. He might have to sit out a year but he'll be a great player for 4+ years now. It's strange this is the first we are hearing about Kasongo though.

Yep. Two weeks before the season

Should have taken Another PG as well . We have an open spot and now that might be 3

 

[Special Ed]

The ncaa is so "fair and balanced", especially toward UT, that they'll surely clear him before it's too late.

Improvement over the last guy, that's for sure, looking like he's a better basketball coach as well, as if that was really even debatable.

Options were limited. If he can win 18+ games which seems doable, then this discussion is moot.

It's not. This program improved the day DT was fired.

Fact

 

[CAVPUT]

Hell....the NCAA should just declare our entire damned team ineligible and forfeit the f-ing season. Let the gator football team play an ineligible player and it's all fine...after the fact, but nuke the team in Knoxville. Like we were going to be a threat in the conference this season? Just another example of those clowns trying to look like they're doing a job.

 

[JohnnyD1024]

I blame BTO,Bruin,AuntieDee and people who pour chocolate milk into cereal for Kasongo's eligibility issue.

I think I just spit Mt. DEW through my nose. 18 games???? Are you kidding????

Well the pickings were a little slim.

Which part of the 18 games is that funny, you think a lot more, a lot less?
