But maybe they were prescient. Speculation is he has been unable to complete the required coursework to become eligible.

I know about the speculation that he is not the best student but I would like to know for sure did he graduate high school yes or no.

He's on the media guide roster though as #82 so doesn't that mean he did make grades? But this is a real big let down

Unless we release him from his LOI he'd have to pay his own way to USC, which I don't see happening. We definitely can't release him if we can't find him, and don't think USC has any scholarship openings in this class anyway.

Not all that much of a surprise really. Most 4-stars who end up at B5 programs are risks to some degree, whether personal or grades. Wouldn't surprise me if a couple of the 4-stars SJSU landed are also casualties.

If I had to guess it seems to me Holmes is embarrassed by the fact he didn't qualify & just avoiding the reality of telling the coaches, OR his family is simply on a long vacation & he'll be here in a week or two. Until I hear otherwise, will hope for the latter.

So they've been trying for awhile to get a hold of him.

Accountability may be a small issue.
