In response to Old Bison
I would indeed like to see Nate back for year 5.
But the contract was to provide 4 years of education and presumably an opportunity to earn a degree. If a man is eligible to play a sort for an additional year, I don't see an obligation to provide a scholarship for that fifth year. If the 5th year happens, it would need to be by mutual consent.
BTW, I believe Steven Tyreee did receive that 5th year scholarship. Also, transfer Brian Fitzpatrick had a year of eligibility remaining when he graduated, and did play that fifth year. I also understand that the only year for which Brian received a scholly was that graduate year. Note that Nate and Brian both played in the shadow of outstanding centers until their final years.
