I lost my swami hat years ago so like everyone else have a 50/50 chance of being right. I do believe the kids have a right to some privacy and we have no right to know about injuries or academic. We will find out if the school decides to release it.

Read the article bcross posted. It actually is a 4 year scholarship. They have a rule preventing the school from taking the scholarship away for on court performance. The only way they can force the kid out is for off-court issues.
It used to be a "year-to-year" thing. That changed in 2011. Schools can offer multiple year scholarships now. And schools (like it mentioned in the article) can put in their own rules preventing coaches from doing what Archie wanted to do.
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.
