LSU guard Spencer academically ineligible

Louisiana State guard Bo Spencer was ruled
academically ineligible for the fall semester, the school announced on Friday.
"We are disappointed for Bo, but our academic staff will continue to work to
help him regain his eligibility," said LSU men's hoops coach Trent Johnson.
"He must now work hard in the classroom to regain the chance to rejoin the
basketball program."

Johnson started 63 of 93 games over his first three years with the Tigers,
averaging 9.8 points per contest. He connected for 14.5 points, 2.7 assists
and 2.5 rebounds per contest during his junior season in 2009-10.

He will be required to pass all course hours in the fall semester in order to
be reinstated to the team in the spring term.
