OSU Justin Fields immediately eligible

[RUchip]

Every other player who sat out a year should sue the NCAA. What a joke.

He has absolutely no case and should have sat out the year just as Jacob Eason did. Former UGA Qb who transferred to Washington

 

[MGSA99]

We are so screwed.

 

[RUfromSoCal?]

All I know is, the NCAA won't take this lying down and the D-3 football program at Middle Bumsucker State is about to get a huge penalty!!

 

[DJ Spanky]

It really has become a joke. I'm surprised Ben Mauk isn't applying for another year of eligibility.

 

[Doctor Worm]

If our transfers-in are granted immediate eligibility, will you be equally indignant?

 

[DJ Spanky]

If our transfers-in are granted immediate eligibility, will you be equally indignant?

Yes, regardless, because this promises to become a free-for-all, where anyone can transfer anywhere with no penalty. How long will it be until there's a shady recruiting underside to this?

You are correct Spanky. I am sure the shady underside is already there, just hasn't surfaced yet.

But that said, I do think this increased freedom of movement is in the best interest of the players. Which has to count for something.

 

[RUinPinehurst]

It's good to be the king.

 

[vkj91]

Think that’s bad, wait until Tate Martell gets his waiver.

 

[MADHAT1]

Make a claim that you were ( name anything) and be granted a waiver because the school you're leaving don't protect it's students and you can't bear to be there anymore.
Especially as a back-up.

Waiver granted, applaud that school as being a place that you know your sister will enjoy and thank the school for being a positive part of your life.

The NCAA should stop the so called waiver being needed and just let transfers play without having to sit.
They allowed it to become a joke and now anyone who wants to transfer because of wanting playing time can say he/she was called a name and/or received dirty looks

 

[Leonard23]

NCAA has basically stopped enforcing the 1 year sit out rule for transfers, and should probably just eliminate the rule because everyone gets a hardship waiver. You get a hardship waiver! You get a hardship waiver! You get a hardship waiver!

It’s become free agency

But what if he doesn’t. Then what

Then he claims the NCAA is racist.
And awaaaaaaaay we go. Lol

Our transfers are also getting immediate eligibility. Alaimo will be eligible. Quit being a drama queen. It’s the same for every school.

 

[RU#1fan]

We are so screwed.

We screwed anyway.

 

[Scarlet Blind_rivals]

They will eliminate it very soon. Best arguement is why can coaches move wherever they want year after year but players have to be penalized doing the same. It's been a dumb rule for years.

 

[jsol_05]

Players should have to sit out a year, when a coach levels he is immediately elinle to coach, so the players should be immediately eligible to play.

Hoping we become part of the shady underside.

 

[rurahrah000]

we should stop recruiting HS players unless they are 4 or 5*. Fill the rest of the class with transfers for immediate eligibility. Much better strategy than our current strategy of filling classes with 2* that may not pan out. If the 2* does not pan out then we are stuck for 4 years.

Agreed

 

[bitnez]

This topic comes up every few months. I don’t understand why people care. Is it free agency — sure. But, so what. Spots get filled and teams play. We root for the uniform.

Im sure the ground work for that is already in the activation phase

Maybe do some research before you post stupidity. I can name you a dozen players in just the last 2 years who were forced to sit out a year.

The point is why does the NCAA allow certain players to play immediately while others wait? There is no logic behind their rulings.

 

[yesrutgers01]

With the new RS rules, we will most likely see a lot more top HS kids play 4 games and then claim a RS. So- why not just make the rule, you can transfer without sitting a year but you forfeit your RS.

 

[greenknight]

I said this months and months ago this will turn into HS basketball.

Wake up dummy. Rules have changed a lo over the last 2 years. Let’s see how many aren’t immediate eligible this year ya dummy. t

On the contrary my friend.Insiders know that he was sick. Had a severe case of Frommitis,which threatened him and his well being and caused much mental distress.The ncaa criteria for hardship transfers are Health,safety and well being of the player.These criteria fit Fields like a glove.The RU transferees are Healthy as horses and will have to wait in the stable for a year.

 

[24Babybull]

Cause an idiot on the UGA Baseball Team makes a comment during a UGA Football game in the stands among 75K people - which was heard by a SJW who reports it to the Administration.

This guy can now transfer without sitting out a year - who had no clue what happened until brought to the presses attention. I think he said put the black kid in or the N word - or put the Black QB in. Forget what he said.
.
True Free Agency is now in NCAA Football - get out your check books out.

Eason may have had more of a hardship case if he wanted it. Fields grew up in Kennesaw, Georgia and transferred to Ohio while Eason transferred back home to Washington state. The reason Eason may have not applied was because Browning was in his final season and a returning 3-year starter. May as well take a redshirt and then start the next three.

The NCAA has been handing waivers out like they were candy on Halloween.

Well he got it. NCAA working their way down the totem pole. They will get to Rutgers by the end of next season I'm sure. What a corrupt organization.

 

[Roy_Faulker]

Which player transferred first?

 

[RUfromSoCal?]

Which player transferred first?

Dec. 2, 2018-- Drew Singleton Announces transfer to Rutgers. Pending

Dec. 19, 2018- Johnny Langan Announces transfer to Rutgers. Pending.

Jan. 4, 2019-- Justin Fields Announces transfer to Ohio State. Approved Feb. 8.

Jan. 16, 2019-- Tate Martell Announces Transfer to Miami. Approved March 19.

 

[Roy_Faulker]

That is total BS then. Can’t imagine their cases are more compelling to justify transfer or faster consideration.
