It's bad for recruiting.
Off the court issues? That's a whole different issue. No problems taking those scholarships away.

Does it really matter when almost every school does it? Dayton has done it. I can't recall a single recruit that we have missed out on because they were afraid their scholarship might get pulled. This really isn't an issue, especially if we are talking about someone who wasn't one of Grant's recruits. I'd be more concerned with our talent evaluation if we found ourselves routinely pulling scholarships for on-court performance.
