Syracuse Football Player Ryan Sloan's High School Grades Boosted (Redux)

via sportsblog.citrustv.net

Back in early December, the New York Post broke the news that Long Island’s Bellport High School admins and coaches pressured school officials to boost the grades of star player and current Syracuse Orange lineman Ryan Sloan?

Well now it's early February and the New York Post is, uh, breaking that news all over again.

"It is clear that Ryan Sloan’s grades were improperly changed at the direction of the administration," said the investigation conducted by Bronwyn Black, an independent investigator and former Suffolk County assistant district attorney.

Discipline is now in the hands of the school board, which Black said should take "all necessary actions."

At least five different people are accused to either coercing someone to fix the grades or doing a little fixing on their own.

So how does this affect Sloan? No idea. Marrone obviously won't say anything, least not until some kind of official press conference where he'll try to slip it past everyone.

Sloan saw action in the Rutgers game though he did not accumulate any stats. He'll be a sophomore this upcoming season.

Freshman Year (2011): Did not play in any games.

I don’t think he played vs. Rutgers.

OOOOOOO - Conspiracy?

Did they go back and change that so it didn’t reflect poorly on the program?

I’m just kidding, I have no idea what it said until now. It may have always said that. But that would be pretty shady if they did.
