Re: Scholly, Souley or both

the same reason teams dont get 20 players and let host families take care of the odd 7 out.
 
Its an NCAA violation.

OK, since the general consensus is that Souleymane might be the odd man out if 3 scholarships are open, here?s a far fetched idea. Most African born students and players that I?ve seen get here do it one of two ways: Families with money back home or with the help of a host family in HS, scholarship or both. (see Romain Sato)  I suspect Souley?s a pretty smart guy to get here in the first place since.

 

So, what if we can find a host family to house him while he?s in college? It?s a win for everyone. He comes off scholarship, stays on the team, gives us a boost for the new APR, improves the team chemistry becuase the guys love him and  gives us a practice player and some small minutes later in life .I don?t think this is a NCAA violation because he?d become a walk on and would not be receiving extra benefits. The university would probably prefer that he stay for international diversity reasons. The fans? We get instant Meeker for 3 years. Would this work?
