Smelly considering MSU baseball...I am told

[Pony Express.sixpack]

I have no link, but I am wondering if anybody has any info. Preliminary information said he would go home and join the brother, but a Cock lover tells me she was told it is an MSU-vs-Alabama issue.

in football, it seems like he'd only have 1. Seems like it would be the same in baseball since he redshirted.

I know you have 5 total years of NCAA eligibility in all sports, so for instance, if he's played 3 years of football he'd have 2 of baseball left

waste of time guys...he's goin to alabama

Assuming he enrolls right now in the school he transfers to...

Spring 09 - sit out for baseball
Fall 09 - sit out for football
Spring '10 - play baseball
Fall 10 - play football (if he wanted)
Spring 10 - play baseball

He would then exhaust his eligibility.

That's what I heard too today from a South Carolina fan in my office.

It has been my understanding that once you enroll, you have five years to complete four years of eligibility, with the exception of a medical redshirt.

 

[maroonmania]

you start a particular sport. Otherwise, how in the world could Marcus Monk come back and play basketball for the Hogs 3 years removed from his football eligibility expiring.

 

[Frances Drebin]

...in an article that he would be eligible to play baseball immediately because he wasn't playing baseball at Carolina. I don't know if that's correct or not, though.

 

[graddawg]

It's 5 to play 4 from the time you enroll in a college/university full-time. Monk graduated high school in 2004 and exhausted his football eligibility at Arkansas after the 2007 season.

 

[maroonmania]

that Monk would only have this one year to play basketball???

 

[graddawg]

That is correct.

 

[Todd4State]

He only had one year to play for the very reason you stated.

I think what is confusing everyone is all of these ex-minor league baseball players like Chris Weinke coming back and having four years to play.
