Message: [QUOTE="HooperScooper, post: 4305567, member: 10"] My recollection is that later in the semester Drummond reversed course and gave his scholarship to Bradley and paid his own way. This article confirms it. So [USER=536]@UCDaveD[/USER] you are correct. [I]Andre Drummond is playing as a non-scholarship player at UConn this season, allowing Michael Bradley to keep his scholarship. "[Bradley] worked hard to get that scholarship," Drummond told the New London Day, which was first to report the story on Tuesday night. "I'm not going to take something from somebody that's not mine." UConn confirmed that Drummond relinquished his scholarship late in the fall semester. Roughly halfway through the fall semester, UConn's compliance staff determined that it was within the rules for a recruited player to decline a scholarship and play as a walk-on. So the change was set in motion. Bradley was back on scholarship and Drummond officially became a walk-on. "This was a complicated issue that took much of the semester to resolve," said UConn spokesman Kyle Muncy. "Once it was, Andre felt it was time to share."[/I] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.courant.com/sports/uconn-mens-basketball/hc-xpm-2011-12-20-hc-andre-drummond-gives-up-scholarship-playing-at-uconn-as-a-walkon-20111220-story.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
