Irish's Tim Abromaitis deserved a 6th year

It was a longshot all along. Everyone knew that -- from Mike Brey to Tim Abromaitis himself. The Notre Dame forward rolled the dice anyway, hoping that the NCAA would reward him with a sixth year of eligibility, restoring the season an ACL injury denied him. Instead the NCAA said no. No reason was given -- that’s not how these appeals work -- just a flat-out sorry about your luck. Likely, the puff of smoke-makers in Indianapolis decided that Abromaitis was shortchanged his sophomore season by choice, not by injury.
