re: Disturbing rumor making the message board rounds.....

First of all there is a difference in flunking out and not being academically eligible. Anyone using the term flunked out should be ignore. You cannot flunk out in one semester. You go on academic probation for at least a semester before you flunk out. I know because I was on academic probation a couple different times in my early college years because all I wanted to do was party. Also, to flunk out he would not have been eligible for the Sugar Bowl because he would have had to had terrible grades last semester as well.

TL,DR: there's a zero percent chance he flunked out.
