Pretty interesting story at the bottom told by CB Benjamin St-Juste who was forced to medically retire by TSUN (they took his scholarship away and basically sent him packing). 

He rehabbed & got back to 100% and per all doctors outside of TSUN he was cleared to play. As a result, he transferred to Minnesota and got drafted in the 3rd round of the 2021 draft by the Washington Commanders and is still on the roster - good for him! He mentioned a teammate from Minnesota who transferred from FL dealt with the same situation.

He played in 12 games as a true freshman at TSUN and completed his undergrad in two years so obviously a bright young man. 

I was under the impression that when a player is medically unable to play with the team the school could honor the scholarship without it affecting the actual scholarship limit.  I know we had players who we deemed as medically ineligible but we didn't force them to leave - coaching and medical staff were not comfortable putting them out there (ie Jamel Dean) 

Dean signed a midyear aid agreement guaranteeing his scholarship would be available to him should he choose to remain committed to Ohio State. A lifelong Buckeye fan, Dean's commitment was never in question, and Ohio State offered to honor his scholarship as a medical hardship—meaning he would stay on scholarship, but would be unable to participate and would not count against the 85-scholarship limit—upon not clearing him.

Not a good look for TSUN and JH
