Now....their academic shortcomings, in part prompted by all the players leaving, but some is because those guys were all flunking anyway,
NOW-- Indiana will lose 2 more basketball scholarships for 2009-2010 on top of what they had set as self punishment for the Kelvin Sampson violations.

So they will only have 10 scholarships available for 2009-2010, nine are already taken by players who are on campus already, BUT----
they already have FOUR incoming kids committed for 2009-2010 (Derek Elston, Bobby Capobianco, Maurice Creek, and Jordan Hulls) , so two of them will NOT have a scholarship available unless someone who is present on the team right now either leaves or has their scholarship yanked!
BUT, there's even one more clincher, that if the NCAA decides the pending case against Kelvin Sampson and Indiana University, and judges that IU should be docked even more scholarships, they could take even more away from them for 2009-2010, or (especially if he case isn't decided for quite a while), they could impose the penalty down the line for 2010 and beyond, really hurting their recruiting for years to come.
BUT--- a note to the present players........watch out, Tom Crean
will need a couple more scholarships to give to the incoming players in 2009,
so yours might get yanked.....!!!
