Paschal Chukwu is coming to SU. How does that affect the team's scholarship situation and ability to get Tyus Battle?
Before Paschu Chukwu confirmed on Sunday his intention to transfer from Providence to Syracuse, it was assumed that SU would begin its scholarship reduction penalty during the upcoming 2015-16 season.
That penalty, handed down in March as part of NCAA sanctions against SU, strips the Orange of three scholarships per year for four years. That means the team can carry only 10 scholarship players per season during the penalty, unless Syracuse wins its appeal of the sanctions and gains back scholarships.
