“Keith Williams, his appeal has been denied and he will be ineligible,” Stansbury told the Daily News on Tuesday. “We’re highly disappointed in the decision from the NCAA, not just for us but for the kid. Keith’s been a terrific young man. He’s worked hard this fall and stayed engaged. His situation – there’s been other kids very similar who were ruled eligible and we don’t understand how they came to this decision, but there’s no more appeals possible. This is where it is. I hate it for the young man as much as us.
“He was a terrific player. There’s no doubt he could’ve helped us in all areas. It says a lot about who he is as a person to hang in here and continue to fight through all of this when he had his college degree already and he didn’t have to, but he did well in school and he worked hard and he was ready to go for us. I hate it for everybody, most importantly for him.”
