It is my observation that KF is doing OK and will not be ineligible.

Maybe it is just wishful thinking on my part, but I watched him carefully at Michigan.

What I saw was a player who was extremely joyful and exhilarated that MK was back in
the lineup. He was laughing with him and congratulating him and was excited. In fact
he was so keyed up during the game that I think he was trying too hard and was forcing
the issue rather than letting the game come to him. He did not play like a player who
thought he was going to be suspended. Did others see it that way too?

He is so emotional while he is playing that that issue may be his biggest problem.
He needs to gain more control and more focus, but I must confess, he is fun to watch
and helps make the game more interesting. But - the main point is I don't believe he
will be suspended. I guess we'll see as this season unravels.

Good point falcon,

For a kid that wears his emotions on his sleeve (or in KF's case, his towel), he didn't give off any signs that he will soon be ineligible.

Keith Frazier is definitely eligible. (Unless he becomes ineligible, at which time he will not be eligible.)

You beat MRydel to that one Berg. Well done.

It would be a huge blow to us and KF himself if he is ineligible. But let's be honest here, I think most of us on here knew that he would have a difficult time in school. If we as "ponyfans" can see that I would hope the administration could see that and literally walked with him to each class and held his hand while he took his tests to prevent being ineligible.

Unfortunately, the administration is only allowed to do so much. They can check you into class but they cannot stay to supervise during a class. I believe the student athlete can leave after 5-10 minutes and circumvent all ncaa monitoring rules. That was part of the explanation I received relative to another case not currently applicable.
