I gather that he's probably not planning on rejoining the football team, but if he did, my understanding is that his scholly would have to count against the football team's, not the lacrosse team. It's the big money sport that has to count it, IIRC, so that sports like FB & BB can't get extra players by counting their scholly against other sports. Is that correct?
Best wishes to the kid. Glad to have had him for the season at Bama and he seems like a good young man. I wish him well in his return to ND.
