Last February, Cathedral High School announced that Paras had scored 1750 on his SAT, which is regarded as a high score.
However, the average incoming UCLA freshman has a score of 2064.
The withdrawal comes just weeks after Paras checked in on campus with the school, tweeting his visits and his locker room nameplate. He even had a chance to meet his fellow class of 2016 recruits during his visit.
“The issue is SAT. Based on UCLA’s standards and his announced score, he fell below the UCLA average,” coach William Middlebrooks said.

Just a question, though: How can this kid be academically ineligible for UCLA when he is OK for Creighton? I mean there are players at UCLA who are not exactly Rhodes Scholars. So why was he not academically qualified for UCLA?
