It sounds like a simple mistake born of impossibly complex rules.

But it frees up an extra NCAA slot for 2 years...

Each case is decided individually, in this case UHN is still eligible for NCAA tourny play.

I actually would rather they stay eligible.  So that we can face them and eliminate them.  We still owe them....

The associate head coach, who was not named in the NCAA's report, said he misinterpreted how data needed to be entered into recruiting software that sends e-mail messages to multiple recipients.

Sounds like that great "South Park" episode..."I misinterpreted the rules"

Yes, it reminds me of when the refs misinterpreted the high stick rule and disallowed Shane Palahicky's goal in the FF.
