To be honest, I feel his pain. Sad that his career ends because of academic issues. I've seen this before and feel for the individuals affected. Often it isn't the University but the educational system that failed them. Don't know if this is the case cause I've seen the opposite where players don't give a fudge and never attend class.

Ouch.

Does anyone know how this affects NIL money? I assume academic ineligibility means you don’t get any, but that may not be the case.

That is sad to see. He will learn from this.
Best wishes.
