re: LSU Compliance Strikes Again

LSU coaches are informed on grades throughout the semester. Not just when report cards come out. O knew, or certainly had every opportunity to know, about pending grade problems. There is no way this was a surprise.

Every athlete at LSU is carefully monitored from Day 1. Ed has a team of academic professionals working to assist him. These are people fully separated from LSU Football who pass daily reports to the coaching staff on:

Class attendance
Study hall hours earned
Tutoring appt attendance and what they achieved in the appts (if anything)
Learning Specialist reports
Academic Advisor reports concerning everything from social to classroom behavior observed

Trust me, the coaches knew Ed would struggle academically before he ever set foot on campus.

If an athlete is declared academically ineligible it means the SA failed to handle their end of the bargain. This has NOTHING to do with LSU Compliance other than they are the ones who have to make the final decision to declare him ineligible
