This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Another update on Keanaaina by enduff

“Now would ND not offer up an option to return? That can and does happen with players who will leave with a degree in hand and are not invited back for a fifth or sixth season. But not with underclassmen. Aidan Keanaaina is GOING to be a senior with junior eligibility. I heard the same rumors you did and I'm convinced no underclassman is being told there's not a spot for them. Could he or someone else be physically compromised to the point where a medical hardship is recommended? That happens almost every offseason. I'm not sure that's the case with him. But the bottom line from talking to people inside I trust, the scenario you painted isn't happening.”
