N&O: NCAA wants to punish Beverly for…going to class?

Since the news broke that 2017 PG Braxton Beverly (late NC State commit) might have to sit out a year, Wolfpack fans have been questioning why the NCAA would do something like that to a kid?

If you’re unclear of what we mean, Beverly committed to Ohio State in early June. In late June, OSU fired head coach Thad Matta. Beverly decided to ask for his release, which he was granted. He then committed to NC State last week. The catch is that Beverly had already enrolled in summer classes at OSU. Now, the NCAA is trying to treat the situation like a ‘transfer,’ meaning he would have to sit out a year.
