Wow! Consider this, per the article JL is advising his 2nd best player to medical redshirt after losing his best player to a season ending medical condition. That coming from a coach who is considered to be squarely on the hotseat. Basically bring me a MVC championship or go.
I think that says alot about JL the MAN. Like most everyone else on here I have my WTF is his thinking moments where JL's coaching is concerned (substitution patterns and absolute refusal to play two players over 6'9 at the same time), but as a human being, you can't deny he is a class act.
But, in this case, this is an automatic extra year for JL.
I don't think anything is automatic. Mo was told he was safe and could go ahead and play all freshmen in '01-'02. I know it's a different regime making the decisions, but I don't think anything is automatic.
How does this work we will be over the limit on schalorships right? for next year.
I never doubted JL was a class act. But, in this case, this is an automatic extra year for JL.
I do wonder about our strength and conditioning coach though.

But how much term remained on MO's contract after the 01-02 season? I don't know that answer but the remaining term has to come into play.
