UNC isn't the only one illegally aiding the student athletes. Fake transcripts must be in now.

NCAA scholarships yanked, WCC coach fired in transcript probe

The Basketball Diary â€@TheBBallDiary

Keep in mind Westchester CC just sent Keith Thomas to St John's. Luis Montero is still there. Whatever is going on, it looks dicey.

 

 

Well, at least the head coach seems to not be involved in the fraud: "Hennessey said WCC officials spoke with head coach Tyrone Mushatt and "we determined that Mushatt was not involved, unaware, had nothing to do with this."

The Basketball Diary @TheBBallDiary 

Mentioned past weekend about Westchester Community College & Keith Thomas eligibility would be a concern. It's clear now, he will not play.

 

The Basketball Diary @TheBBallDiary  

The next big time guy with academic concern could be Luis Montero of Westchester Community College bc of time period he is at WCC.

Luis Montero can't get away from dodgy circumstances. 1st Wilbraham & Monson transfer to Juco suddenly. Now at WCC - has transcript issues.

 

Westchester Community College casted a real bad light on the good juco programs out there in the country.

We should bring in Montero anyway. Redshirt him until he gets his academics in line. We stand by him now, he'll play balls out for us later.

We dodged a bullet with Thomas.

Former WCC star Keith Thomas ineligible, St. John's says

Considering the ongoing scandal at WCC, I doubt that the USF AD would allow CoachOA to continue to pursue Montero.

Which would mean that COA couldn't secure a commitment from a single offensive player that could potentially make an immediate impact next season. The swinging and missing on so many prospects hurt and limited the staff into putting all their eggs in the basket of Montero. Without him where in the world do they turn to now?

Why not bring in Montero as a Freshman with two years of eligibility? Simply ignore his grades from Juco as if he never attended?

And we may be dodging a bullet with Montero, too ... and may be why we didn't hold a scholarship open.
