[NU Sports] Keyshawn in RB HOF?

[Hakirsch at aol.com]

The ineligible tag only works if the game was played AFTER the start of 
spring or winter classes, unless the coach chooses to pull a kid's eligibility 
prior to those dates. 

Mr. Johnson was obviously a high draft pick going into that game. No coach of 
any college (except NU, State Penn, Rice, SMU, Vandy, and maybe Duke) would 
screw up a kid's chances to reflect well on their school on Sunday.


As I understand it Johnson was later declared in-eligible and Barnett was 
later  offered the Rose Bowl trophy which he refused

The starting back for USC was declared academically in-elgible for the Rose 
Bowl this year-I assume that was because during the fall sememster , he didnt 
get the grades or enough credits

And do the pros care that a kid was academically in- eligble -- ?Perhaps they 
care if he was suspended or kicked off for behavoir (although most dont seem 
to care about that either)
