2nd semester is barely 3 weeks old in most colleges.

Correct. But I'd heard he has a lot of work to do and figured that had to be more than just pass this semester, so I was just curious.

It is unclear what the qualifications will be for JUCOs this year.  It seems likely that high school kids will get some relief but not sure if JUCOs will get anything similar.  

 

For now, he's taking online classes to fulfill the requirements as they've always been.  Seems to be in line to qualify.

Sounds good for Omar. He's going to pass one of his required classes. Then he has 2 more that'll finish up at the end of May. If he has a "hiccup" he'll still have June to correct anything. 

 

Held has been checking up on him multiple times per week.

Having Held on the staff is so helpful when recruiting JUCO's.  As a former JUCO head coach, he has extensive experience of working with kids trying to get them eligible for the next level.  That has to work great with the players and the JUCO coaches during the recruiting process.
