Felix Ineligible - UPDATE FELIX ELIGIBLE

QUEENS, N.Y. (Nov. 13, 2015) – St. John’s guard Felix Balamou (Conakry, Guinea) has been deemed ineligible for game competition due to an NCAA violation. The University is seeking reinstatement and Balamou is permitted to practice with the team during this process.
 
            “We understand Felix’s disappointment and we are here to support him,” said St. John’s general counsel and interim athletic director Joseph Oliva, Esq. “St. John’s will work in concert with the NCAA through the reinstatement process.”
 
            Balamou has appeared in 54 games in his three seasons with the Red Storm. The Conakry, Guinea, native has career averages of 1.6 points and 1.1 rebounds playing 9.1 minutes per game. In 2014-15, Balamou played in 22 games, including 12 BIG EAST appearances, and made three starts. He averaged 1.7 points and 1.5 rebounds in conference play last season.

We have the worst luck, it's honestly incredible.

We are going to be underdogs against Chaminade in Maui

What could this possibly be lol?

We Are

Ineligible

It's ok. Elijah Holifield, the best player on the team, will lead them to victory.

Oh goodie

It cannot be true that Lavin or his team leaked this . Lavin is a great man who cares about his players above all else.

I'm speechless.

I'm speechless.

Take Lavin's dick out of your mouth and try it again.

Squeaky clean Lavin leaving a trail of shit.

Wonder if Jordan and Obekpa were told certain things would come out if they stayed by a former member of the staff at this point....

So, we don't know what Balamou did, but whatever it is, it's Lavin's fault?

Yup, anything that goes wrong this season can be pinned on the coach who has had nothing to do with the university since March. Don't you get it by now?

The fact that losing Felix Balamou is devastating to us is pretty sad and goes to show just how bad we are going to suck this year.

(if the report is true) Lavin recruited him, turned a blind eye to whatever the offense was, and then leaked it on the eve of Balamou's senior year. This after costing FB a year of eligibility by activating him for a game to teach that other psycho Lavin recruited a lesson. So yes, it's Lavin's fault.

I cannot believe this guy turned out to be worse than I even imagined. I had him pegged as worse than Hitler. Turns out for once in my life I was an optimist.

Feel bad for the kid
