He is a TO machine...There is a reason he was not named a clear starter at ND. My guess he ends up at a ACC school.

Won't be an SEC School ..

without an appeal. NBC Sports

"SEC rules regarding transfers coming to a school in the SEC could prohibit Golson from being an option without approval from the conference office. SEC guidelines note any student-athlete that has been subject to academic discipline during enrollment at any institution. A school may file for an appeal to that rule regarding transfers for students with fewer than two years of eligibility remaining (which would be Golson’s case as he is expected to graduate this spring from Notre Dame)."

Why ..


Does the SEC even bother to have any Rules .. when they can simply be waived?

Because Golson was suspended during the 2013 season, for what he called “poor academic judgement,” whichever school he chooses would have to submit a waiver to the league office.

SEC bylaw 14.1.15.1, part d, clarifies the conference’s rules for graduate student exceptions: They may receive financial aid, practice and compete … so long as “the student-athlete has not been subject to official university or athletics department disciplinary action at any time during enrollment at any previous collegiate institution.”

Yea, you can thank Houston Nutt for the fact that you can't oversign and the fact that you have this stupid rule.

Mike Slive was a reactionary leader, and if you dared to do something that got negative attention, by golly, he was going to create a rule to show he meant business, even if the rule was stupid (like this one is).

That's one part of Slive I won't miss.

He can probably win that though. That clause was thrown in for players like Masoli, who were transferring out to escape disciplinary action. That's not the case with Golson.

Miles doesn't do that crap but than again until last year Saban didn't either but I suspect Ole Miss is going hard after him.
