Duder 238 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 It is being reported that Malzahn says Dyer "likely out" for this season. Imagine that. Getting in trouble and claiming family problems to transfer didn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarEagleDG 6 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Is it injury, or behavior? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgufcm 4,107 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 My first guess is neither. I'm guessing his application for a waiver was denied, and he'll have to sit out the year as a transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandstone 0 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 I didn't think he'd be eligible. The NCAA can't let the "family problems" excuse negate the transfer rules. They'll have to get that one under control quickly. I hope they see the difference between the circumstances around Jay Prosch and Mike Dyer.

WarEagleDG 6 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 I hope they see the difference between the circumstances around Jay Prosch and Mike Dyer. It would seem to be a clear difference to me. Prosch's Mother has been battling cancer so he would like to be at a college that is only a three hour drive away. Dyer...not even sure what he's trying to claim is his "family problem".

We have a winner. And yes--there is a clear distinction with Prosch. I see NOTHING to indicate his will be denied. Our coaches are certainly confident as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About the same as Dyer declaring for the draft and leaving ASU behind. So when would Canadian football or US Arena football take him. NFL walk-on? This will be a humbling drop. A guy that could have played at Auburn next fall after setting out 5 games or so, then could have declared for the NFL draft in 2013. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A guy that could have played at Auburn next fall after setting out 5 games or so, then could have declared for the NFL draft in 2013. He can still declare for the draft after this season. He likely will, and he'll likely get drafted... not where he would have had he remained at Auburn in good standing, but someone will pick him up.

Duder 238 Posted May 8, 2012 Author Share Posted May 8, 2012 Dyer has cost himself MILLIONS. Work ethic and character issues--dumbest move he could have made was to run away from it. He won't get cleared to play this year so he'll sit out, probably declare for the draft and offer a resume of: -Solid 2010 season, partially as a back-up -Solid 2011 season, pulled because of attitude problems, off-field stuff -His gun being used in an armed robbery -Admitted drug use, including weed Kid just thee away his golden ticket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcgufcm 4,107 Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 That comparison looks better by the month, but at least Dyer had the good sense to keep playing instead of fighting a legal battle he can't win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now what does he have??? What he does or doesn't have now wasn't the issue (in my post). It's a shame that he (apparently) didn't handle himself the way he needed to off the field, but I don't see the point in trying to put a negative spin on his tremendous performance on the field the last two years just because he's gone.

Duder 238 Posted May 10, 2012 Author Share Posted May 10, 2012 What he did on the field isn't the only issue. I look at a player holistically and his tremendous on-field performance has become overshadowed. I'm not diminishing his performance but pointing out that had he not jammed his head in his own back-side he would've seen more PT last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
