NCAA sucks..... Some new transfer clarifications that fit just a few limited situations

"Student-athletes in some specific situations can now transfer and compete immediately without a waiver, the Division I Council decided this week. The Council met Thursday and Friday in Indianapolis.

Incoming freshman college athletes who have enrolled in summer school and received athletics financial aid can transfer and play immediately without a waiver if their head coach departs before the first day of classes for the fall term. Additionally, walk-on student-athletes on teams that provide athletics aid and nonrecruited walk-ons can transfer and play immediately without a waiver. Those rules are effective for students who transfer to new schools this fall."

http://www.ncaa.org/about/resources/media-center/news/di-council-adjusts-transfer-rules

 

Per Football Scoop:  An NCAA spokesperson has clarified that this applies only to incoming athletes who will begin their college enrollment for the summer term — not high schoolers who graduated early and enrolled in January.

That just means they don't have to apply for a waiver. Re: the bolded part, it just means those students would still have to apply for a waiver... Which very well may get approved. It doesn't mean that a waiver 100% won't be approved

Just seems like a limited situation where a Head Coach leaves in the summer.  Guess this should be called the Bob Stoops/Lincoln Riley rule......  Not sure why the freshman early enrollees shouldn't be allowed to leave without a waiver too just like the incoming summer freshman??

I have NO problem with walk-ons transferring and having immediate eligibility without a waiver.

Or call it the Hugh Freeze Escort-Service Rule..... resigned in late July 2017 from Old Miss. This new rule does not apply to the  run-of-the-mill Nov/Dec/Jan firings or departures.

I'd think they'd all be granted as the NCAA is going to have a heck of time in court explaining why group A can and group B can't.  I'm guessing this rule is more a warning to schools if they do a Stoops/Riley all that year's recruits are allowed to change schools.

According to Mike Roach Texas is looking into this grad transfer LB from Florida, still in the vetting process but interest from both sides.

Hmm. Dual threat qb out of HS, so the athleticism is there, if the 30 lbs of weight hes added is good. Dallas kid. Jesus we need bodies.

It can't hurt, but taking a JAG LB over the summer and expecting him to have the talent level and ability to pick up the scheme in time to be helpful for next season seems unlikely. If we experience injuries to the point where we'd need this guy to start, I think I'd rather just go 4 DL and 7 DBs.

Certainly not ideal, but it's pretty damn fortunate we have LOS DBs in Foster (proven) and Overshown (unproven) with the lack of LB depth. Foster had a hand-full of really savvy plays against larger linemen last season. 

Yeah, Overshown is a pretty big unknown but his HS film makes me think he'd excel at Rover. In the goal line series during the spring game, Overshown navigated the box extremely well and knifed into the running lane multiple times.  He showed the instincts and natural ability to flow to the play you want to see out of an ILB. 

 I suspect Overshown might be the best LB on our roster currently, and it's a shame he hasn't been training at Rover all spring, whether that's his choice or the staff's.

At worst he’s competition. It’s not like we’ve never seen seniors suddenly make a jump in play.

A returning senior is much different than a grad transfer. It's going to take a ton for him just to learn the system in time, let alone play well. But yeah, there's really no downside to taking him. I'm just saying the odds of him making much of a beneficial contribution are extremely low.

I would be more sympathetic to his argument if he was not so full of shit. His number one reason for transferring was playing time.

We're going to have to run linebacker drills for the safeties just so Overshown can play "safety"

Which, given Martell's situation, still makes the NCAA hypocritical (easily debunk-able cover story, plus playing time concerns)

What have we here??

 

does he have any connection at all to austin that would make him want to come here and split time?  tre watson is from california so obviously austin seemed like a good idea to him, plus he played against us twice.  feaster is from spartanburg.

@closetojumping says we have some kind of in with Feaster.

He must like F250s.

Yep. I still have a hard time believing Overshown just flat out refuses to play LB. He wasn't a diva while being recruited and he lined up all over for Arp, including playing DL one year, so it doesn't add up to me, but regardless, it doesn't seem like he's been getting any reps at Rover, even though he seems like the best candidate for that spot on the roster.

It's going to be interesting to see how involved Texas is with him, given how bullish they are on Whittington now. I don't see why they wouldn't pursue him. I'll see if they're still excited about getting him on campus.

so what’s the connection?  why were we a possible “likely destination” several months ago?
