Anyone know when we will hear about ineligible players? I believe the DMN said we should know by today.

I have no reason to believe he will not play but it has been reported from the beginning(cannot remember where I read it) that the final knowledge of eligibility would not be known until after they were in Hawaii. So anyone could still be found to be ineligible, I would assume, with the exception of those that are graduating today and heading west tonight or tomorrow.

That's huge.
If we're serious about being a good program, the next thing we need to do is make sure these guys stay eligible. It's going to be a big issue now that we can take guys that are on the margins of qualifying academically...think Michael Oher w/o the intensive academic tutoring he received the last few years of high school.
