We should be thankful that we didn't have many scholarships available this year. If we had a "regular" availability of, say, 22 scholarships, we wouldn't have been able to fill them with quality players who could get admitted. In fact, while we don't know whether Smythe, Allen and Cunningham were admitted, there is a reasonable chance that we couldn't even fill 14 or 15 spots with quality players who could get in this year. Having a lot of scholarships available would have been a disaster. I think this is because somehow, this class just didn't have a large pool of athletes who could qualify academically. Â
