The article says that Angello is transferring for his senior season. Does anyone know where he is going?

Although the blog didn't specify, presumably the "appeal" as they called it was an Article 78 proceeding, which is the mechanism New York State gives its citizens to take a state or local agency to court over actions or decisions it made affecting the citizens. If it was an Article 78, it's not in the least surprising to me that the judge didn't even leave his bench to make the decision. The bar for an Article 78 is pretty high; the petitioner has to demonstrate that the agency's action was made in violation of lawful procedure, was affected by an error of law, or was arbitrary and capricious or an abuse of discretion. Although many of us may disagree with the Section III panel's ruling, I don't think anybody here believes it was illegal or defied logic.
