2 Calhoun OL on the line for 2019, if Kenny Cooper doesn't go pro. Cooper from Sonoraville HS, Defoor from Calhoun HS

They lost their coach, are on probation and have a postseason ban, ncaa needs to change their ööööing transfer policy.

Didn't Tech recruit him pretty hard before he chose Ole Miss? Anyway, he is welcome to The Flats and I hope he quickly learns the Golden Rule.
To Hell With Georgia!!!!

I agree. The NCAA is in need of major reform. The problem is what can anyone do to force their hand? The kids have no choice if they want to go to the NFL.

How come coaches can switch jobs at will when under contract without recourse but the kids are heavily penalized? I think anytime there is a coaching change or a change in a programs status not cause my the particular SA, the SA should be able to transfer without restriction nor penalty.

Supposedly, we are trying to get him a waiver to play right away

 

[BainbridgeJacket]

He has a legitimate chance of starting when he’s eligible. @BuckeyeJacket wanna set the odds.

 

[gtchief]

Good, less to focus on come February. How many spots we got left?

Yes. In the Woody intro press conference, PJ mentions something about pursuing a waiver.

 

[JJacket]

A coworker told me today one of Defoor's Ole Miss teammates got a waiver. Don't know if true or if he was just hearing about us pursuing one.

Found this from December. One player threatened to sue for transfer eligibility. Don't know of anything since

The NCAA is just enforcing the rules the college Presidents pass.

öööö em. I swear to God we should pay the Atlanta Falcons to play our game against UGA every Nov. Beat the öööö out of them then forfeit the win for ineligible players.

Pull that shit every ööööing year.

I didn’t know that. So the university presidents come together and make some rules up and the NCAA enforces?

The NCAA is just the schools, you know?

This is a great move for us. Hopefully we can get him a waiver and start him this fall. We need more hosses on the OL and he's already got P5 experience. Total bonus.
