Please someone in the know give us reasonable explanation.

The reasonable explanation is that isn’t the truth

I mean, it was said in the other thread...someone told him to take a specific class that wound-up being the wrong class.

But, then NCAA being the NCAA, doesn't give a frick apparently and is willing to screw a kid over for passing the incorrect class he was supposed to take.

Either his grades are in the toilet or he popped hot on a piss test.

In fairness they shouldn’t. If you can’t take the right fricking class when you are a college student with all the advisors and everything else, you shouldn’t get an excuse

If what is being reported is true, I place waaaaayyyyyy more blame on the advisors than I do the student. And the NCAA is going to frick over the student.

I was told it was his advisor who made the mistake of putting him in the wrong class.

I still don’t know how the ncaa should get involved. It’s ridiculous if this is what actually happened. The player and the advisor would have to be barely functioning for it to be possible

When I was at LSU I took a class recommended by an advisor and it did not fill the requirement they told me it would. It happens

The kid has been here two full seasons. His academic eligibility should not be in question. How lazy do you have to be to not go to free tutoring and follow your tutor's instructions?

I just don’t believe this. There is no way this happened and this hasn’t happened here before to my knowledge

It’s a straight up lie… I was a LSU athlete, you have your own academic advisor who helps you with your classes. You get to register for any class you want or that they recommend before any other student on campus can… all athletes register for classes first before any other student… so you don’t have to worry about a class being full… if you want the class you get it. There is no way he took the wrong class, that doesn’t even make sense anyway… it’s an Ed O LIE

and his "major" is Interdisciplinary Studies. Not to be mistaken for engineering or pre-med.

He literally can take the easiest classes on campus. Go to class, get tutoring, and it's virtually impossible to not stay eligible.

It's probably a degree progress issue. The advisor thought the class would count toward whatever degree he's going for, maybe he switched majors or something, or the curriculum was adjusted, and his degree progress % doesn't meet NCAA requirements.

Some advisors don't have a clue about anything. Just saying, it's not an impossible thing to happen to a student

He may have been required to get to a certain % complete of earning his degree. The advisor could have said hey take this mythology class for your elective. if the class doesn't fill the elective requirement he might not have made the % complete he needed.

IDK how it works or if that happens, just using my imagination.

The only problem with that sentiment is that some of the advisors are legit garbage. I teach on a college campus and I have had students come to me after the semester is over to ask me to advocate for a course substitution on their behalf because their advisor told them they needed my class when they actually needed a different one.

It’s fricked up, but it does happen. Don’t know if that’s the case here, but I can absolutely believe that it as a possibility. Because it does happen, and more often than you’d think.
