[QUOTE="Ulysses Everett McGill, post: 1194322, member: 327307"] I wasn't aware that Nichols was going to appeal to play in the Fall. That would mean we have three appeals. TA's should be an easy approve. So maybe Thorne and Groce really want/hope to get another year, and they're just adding to the other two. Or, maybe Thorne's appeal is expected to get denied but intended to possibly guilt-trip the NCAA into giving us Nichols? They did hose us on Starks recently, so maybe the idea is to throw three at them in hopes of getting two, allowing the NCAA to "save face" with one deny. If so, I'd rather they grant Thorne's and deny Nichols', but the reverse would be OK and maybe "sacrificing" Thorne's appeal enhances Nichols'. What do I know. Can't remember when they make their rulings on these things -- late summer? [/QUOTE]
