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

I think that is why he went juco because his high school grades weren't good enough.

We (we - as in NCAA) let criminals stay in school but not academically challenged students?

 

Therein lies a dilemma...

With entrance requirements far lower that the normal student, I'd say they allow academically challenged students in all the time.

He would be better off transferring to another JC for his final  semester and wait to sign from there during the late period.

After this fiasco at WCC, It will be interesting to see how things pan out for Montero.

Westchester CC has suspended their men's basketball program indefinitely due to allegations of altering transcripts, per The Journal News.

 

***

 

 

Now that the BB program is suspended, he should speak with the guidance counselor there to make sure that if he stays and graduates this year, that everything is in order for him to play BB at a Division 1 university.

Looks like we got him?

Retweeted by Running the Bulls

Russ Wood â€@RussHoops ·1 hr

ICYMI earlier, 2015 Westchester C.C. G/F Luis Montero (@luis_montero10) commits to #USF

 

Did they delete the tweet? I'm not seeing it.

 

 

 An apparent communication breakdown between him and his source .... and yes, what I'm posting below is premium material but when neither Wood nor RTB deem it necessary to correct the error via the same vehicle they announced it, other than just delete, I don't think there's a problem posting it.

 

 

 

Luis Montero update

Following my post of earlier this morning, my source has informed me that Montero hasn't officially committed to USF yet but based on what he knows, my source expects that will happen. 

I apologize for the confusion, but when you get a text that reads "Luis Montero to USF", from a source with an excellent track record, and there is no indication that I'm not supposed to publicize that; I then try to get the information to you as quickly as possible.

So again, I apologize for this situation. I had a good talk with this source, who also feels badly that he didn't make his text more clear/accurate.

Well, Russ Wood (USF Rivals) who incorrectly reported his earlier verbal to USF,  now tweets "Russ Wood â€@RussHoops Oct 21

According to his coach, one school is "high on the list" for Westchester JuCo prospect Luis Montero. Find out who"

 

I doubt he would bother to write a (premium) story on him at this time, if the unnamed school was not USF. At least, that's what I hope.

 

 

As I thought...

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
