“somewhat
contradictory to Dee’s stated intent is some of his actions during the
timeframe of this inquiry. Messages sent through social media outlets
and with members of the print media can be seen as contradictory to
someone who is just ‘testing the waters.’”<span>

“reach out to Dee” and make him fully aware of what missing the deadline would entail regarding his college eligibility, but
“their efforts were mostly ignored.” Bost said last week,
“I just thought I could go through the draft and work out and then still come back.” That used to be the case until an <span class="caps">NCAA</span> rule change this year that closed that window and also moved the withdrawal date up several weeks.<span>

left April 27 to begin approximately three weeks of pre-draft training
in Las Vegas. While there, he was visited by head coach
Rick Stansbury and assistant coach
Robert Kirby on May 8, the deadline withdrawal date. The three met at a Denny’s that morning
“in order to ‘clear the air’ about some alleged comments made by Coach Stansbury to <span class="caps">NBA</span> officials about Bost and for Stansbury to relay information he had received from Stu Jackson of the <span class="caps">NBA</span>.”<span>

From the school’s concluding statement:
“When
Dee indicates he didn’t ‘communicate’ with the coaching staff the
university believes this as to mean he wasn’t ‘listening’ to the staff,
not that they didn’t try to communicate with Dee during this time
period. While he does appear to contradict himself, sometimes in the
same sentence, these communication difficulties prevent our university
from being able to say that he’s being deceitful.”<span>
These 4 comments are pure gold. That dude is a friggin idiot.
Oh, and Stans is a friggin idiot for not only recruiting him but allowing him to be the floor general. Someone with this sort of decision making should not be running a team on the floor.
