AU64 10,122 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Sounds like poaching their players is legal....but I still don't like the feel of it. We've been there before and will probably be there again some day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Plainsman 948 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 It’s actually a clean proposal. “Consider us, if you have players who choose to transfer”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One good thing the NCAA does is if a school is sanctioned transferrred undergrad players don't have to sit a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcgufcm 4,100 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 @ellitor, that’s an overstatement. Any player with eligibility that would expire during a postseason ban is free to transfer with sitting. Anyone else needs a waiver. That’s why Shea Patterson, for example, needed a waiver. He had eligibility extending beyond OM’s bowl ban. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcgufcm 4,100 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Ha! I was trying to be nice! Some players can transfer without sitting, some cannot. That's why the multi-year bowl ban is such a hammer. It exposes a large portion of your roster to open transfer. They don't need a release either. They are simply free to leave, which is different than a typical non-graduate transfer. I'm glad we reached out. Cale Garrett (leading tackler at LB), DeMarkus Acy (lead team in INTs and second in PBUs), and Yasir Durant (two-year starter at LT with a RS available) are all free to leave and would be GREAT additions.

McLoofus 35,182 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Mizzou might've gotten screwed, but that doesn't mean the players should all get screwed, too. They didn't do anything wrong. And, unlike a major state university, they have a very fleeting opportunity to be successful in football. They're going to get contacted, so we might as well be one of the schools contacting them.
