According to IMDb's official synopsis of the episode, No Love:
With the Spring semester gearing up, Simone finds herself once again at odds with her teammates, leaving her to decide how she wants to be moving forward. Damon is stressed about how his decision will affect those around him, but there is one person he may not have considered. Keisha is all in on her new dance major, but she must overcome a roadblock that she didn't anticipate. Cam hits a snag with his financial aid and turns to Amara for help, causing Amara to investigate the situation. Meanwhile, Coach Marcus takes a difficult but necessary step in the right direction.
