bcross - most of the "scholarship pulling" out there are coaches pulling scholarships prior to a player signing. That's a different thing, but still uncool.
They can still pull the athletic scholarship for on court performance, it's just that the kid would go on an academic scholarship instead and not be permitted to be part of the basketball program. That frees up a scholarship for the athletic program, while the now former athlete still receives the financial benefit of the scholarship.
