Syracuse to pay the piper:

The Orange’s basketball team scored 912, below the necessary 925, for the first time in program history due to the early departure of several student-athletes, according to a release from SU.
... “We have always been above the APR standard since it was implemented. We had three students leave school early to pursue professional basketball careers last spring and that is difficult to overcome,” said head coach Jim Boeheim. “In anticipation of this, we took the scholarship penalty during the 2009-10 school year. We anticipate being back above the APR standard when the next report is compiled.”
Jonny Flynn, Eric Devendorf and Paul Harris all left school early last spring to turn pro.
I love how they "took" the penalty when it suited them, when it wouldn't cause a scholarship crunch.
How far behind can Cal and UK be?
