You know..at first.. I was feeling sorry for Arroyo.. I was sympathizing with this situation. Then I started thinking back..and I remembered when I played we definitely had a guy declared ineligible due to his age. That was that.
And yeah.. I'm certain Nathan is a much more skilled player than this kid was. But..this "hardship" stuff.. has got to go. I've read your explanation with an openmind. But..this kid that didn't get to play his senior year.. left his family to get out of Mexico (living with cousins)..to get an education..and maybe get to play the game he loves too.
He didn't play his freshmen year..failed sophomore..played the year he repeated.. played his "junior" year..and couldn't play his senior year. No motions were filed..no ranting and raving.
It's unfortunate for Nathan..really..but you as his gaurdian (or whatever relation you are to him) should realize that these trials are what make us stronger and more determined.
Life is a b*tch..suck it up. Ya know?
