It is a commitment that Marquette (and many other schools) have made.

Not only that but I believe he would meet the criteria to have it required under NCAA rules if he came back within a decade.

so, even though he signed with an agent and signed a pro contract, the academic side of the scholarship is still valid?

Yes academic scholarship not athletic. And it it is the MU way and other institutions do it. Nice perk, didn't you know some of those in the 70's teams did graduate with a scholarship years later.

thx. I knew players came back years later, but thought at that point (after turning pro) they were on their own.
