Maligi called Kimball and asked how his grade might be improved. That's all that's in the report. Nothing more than that. Except that the grade was changed by the Kimball coach soon after. Pure conjecture.
Basically Ulric called the Kimball college coordinator multiple times - topic of conversation can't be documented - but reportedly asked what KF could do to improve grades. SMU knew KF was in academic trouble, but that's it.

SMU knew about the grade but there seems to be no evidence they influenced the change. Kimball coach admitted that he changed the grade without permission from the Physics teacher.

Basically sounded like a problem with kimball coaches, that shipp is trying to fit smu coaches into the picture as well
Just watched the story, totally weak to try and include SMU in it. Said the assistant coach was constantly calling Kimball wanting to know his grades and was there something he could do to improve it. DUH, who would not be checking on their top recruits eligibility. No proof at all that SMU asked that his grade be changed. The also said that he took an online class and that is what he made him eligible.
Ready to see what "much more to come tomorrow means" but from today, SMU has ZERO liability.

"implied accusations" is even a stretch. WELL OF [deleted]*NG COURSE COACH MALIGI CALLED KIMBALL TO ASK ABOUT KF's GRADES. EVERY GODDAM COACH IN THE COUNTRY CALLS HIGH SCHOOLS TO ASK ABOUT RECRUIT'S GRADES

Shady and embarrassing journalism. He all but accused coach brown in the press conference. This guy should be fired and complaints voiced to that sorry [deleted] channel and trying to implicate SMU into this.
