I feel for the kid. He was merely doing as the courts had ruled at the time. I understand there was an inherent risk in entering the NFL Draft, but its seems as if the NCAA could reinstate him based on the unusual circumstances. The NCAA is a joke. They allow players to play minor league baseball and collect checks, but won't allow Bloom to earn money from his sport through sponsors. Mike Williams made every attempt to earn his reinstatement, but in the end the NCAA made yet another bad call.
