Watching him during the West Virginia game he was pumping his fists and yelling and cheering the team on. Here I am all angry that the NCAA hasn't made a decision and informed anyone what's going to happen and the one guy who is the most affected is cheering and yelling and looking like he's having a great time. I'm sure he's beyond frustrated but he's a bigger man that I am for having that kind of attitude during games. You know he's dying to play. I'm sure I'd be sulking on the bench if I were him. Way to go Billy!

Agreed. Two things that you might infer from this:
1.) Billy is part of this team. He practices and lives with these guys. Even if he can't play, he's part of that brotherhood.
2.) He's either still got hope that he'll get cleared, OR he knows he won't (this year) and is sticking around for next year.
In any case, if he felt things were a lost cause, I highly doubt we'd see this much of him. There's no reason for him to travel, for example, yet there he is.
