Sorry for another "report", but i heard their safety Lendy Holmes will be ineligible due to academics, It would be the 2nd straight year for him, Emanueal Cook from SC has the same problem, But Just keep your guys eyes on this, could be another blow for them.

Anyone know if there is any truth to this?

I seriously doubt it is true...because I believe OU is still taking their finals this week. So it would be too early to know.

But then again, I am not on campus so I do not know for sure.

I hope it is not true. Last time I heard all grades were good.

I've already asked him to identify his sources. I don't like hearing rumors any more than you do, and after what Gator Nation has been through with all this crap about Meyer and Notre Dame which isn't true (FWIW, he's all for UF and is very happy in Gainesville in spite of what some of these morons in the media are trying to conjure up) he should know better than to stir the pot. It doesn't make either side look good.

I know what you mean.

I know where he got it from. Gatorbait.net has a post about it. Just rumors nothing more right now.

Why would Meyer go to ND now? Didn't he supposedly get offered that spot the year he took the UF job? That's a rumor that should be easily squashed... Either that or Meyer is insane.

Of course it should be squashed, but try telling that to some of these sportswriters and other idiots out there who think it's funny - that, or they have major problems understanding what they read and hear (or twist the facts on purpose knowing they'll get a rise out their audience), OR - they have nothing better to do with their time than to keep the rumor mill spinning and **** people off......

I think they're just enjoying hearing us whine about our injuries and are trying to stir something else up.

Of course if Stoops comes out and says that he's eligible today, we are effed.

The same person sending me an e-mail yesterday advising that this was a concern (Lendy had not taken finals yet), sent another this AM saying that Hale is reporting that Lendy has passed his finals and is eligible.
Let's see what comes out in the news reports today.

Hale is just a coaches' mouthpiece at this point, especially in regards to whether a player will play. I don't think he's credible on injuries/eligibility, and certainly won't break any news as to other topics like he used to do.

But I hope he's right!

Hale is reporting that Lendy has passed his finals and is eligible.

Great.

He also told conflicting reports of the Granger deal.

His saying Lendy is eligible is like Bob saying he's not injured.

Lendy's probably been dead for two weeks.

Ya OU is taking finals this week, but he may already know his grades depending on the testing form (scantron, essay, short answer, etc.). If he didn't make grades it's pathetic. I have seen first hand the type of assistance and study guides the school provides and they are AWESOME! If he does not make grades it's because he just did not try...

*If* it's true, surely they won't take him to the title game and surely he won't get a ring if and when OU wins.

Demarco Murray is an academic all american and would give his right nut to play in this game or last year's game and then you've got someone like Lendy just pissing it away.

It's amazing.

I had lendy in a class last year. I sat next to him whenever he came to class, which was not very much. I don't think he even showed up for the final. I doubt he pulls this crap again.

Soonerfan88
12/18/2008, 09:49 PM
For those on Facebook, it's been reported that he posted on his page that he passed all his finals/classes. This was all a panic from someone who posted on a board that Lendy wasn't at one of the practices/meetings because he was studying for finals.

12/18/2008, 09:57 PM
I heard this from a guy in my office the other day. I really hope it's not true and Lendy has his act together.

The reason we have lost a lot of these bowl games is due to our best players not being on the field.

Yeah, he initiated it through F. Alexander, who told R. Willis (Frank's nightclub buddy, and current OU B-ball player), who told R. Wright (current OU B-ball player and Torontonian) who called home to Toronto to tell a friend, with his friend then telling a homeless guy on the street, with the homeless guy then telling a random donatiion giving passerby, who happened to have told me.

That's great and all if you don't need a FG in a tight game...73% yep that's the type of kick I want kicking my game winning FGs...not that we've needed any of those this year...BTW some of those XPs were ugly ducks that just barely made it...I know even ducks count

Just look on the bright side - it gave us incentive to score TDs instead of FGs which we did better than any other team by far. Plus you win as a team and lose as a team and after 13 games, Stevens is as much a part of the team as anyone. Give the young man some respect.

From the press conference today (Q&A part with Lenny Holmes):

On getting the opportunity to play in this year’s bowl game:

Lenny: “It feels great to be in this game. Last year it wasn’t so great. I let the team down and wasn’t there for the team. Now I can say that I am here for the team and I will be in Miami with the team.”

On the rumors of being academically ineligible this year:

Lenny “It was just rumors. I wasn’t paying any attention to those. People are going to talk regardless and just because something happened last year doesn’t mean it is going to happen this year. I said last year that it would never happen again.”
