au21tigers 0 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 University of Mississippi football student-athlete Jeremiah Masoli may compete immediately, according to a decision today by the NCAA Division I Subcommittee for Legislative Relief. The subcommittee’s decision overturns the staff decision to grant the graduate student transfer waiver with the condition that Masoli could not compete until the 2011-12 academic year. According to NCAA rules, created by member schools, football graduate student-athletes must receive a waiver in order to compete if they enroll at a university other than where they received their undergraduate degree. Every NCAA waiver process includes a staff decision first and an opportunity for the school to appeal that decision to an independent committee. This group is comprised of representatives of NCAA member schools and conferences. Throughout both stages of the waiver process, the case is reviewed and evaluated based on the specific facts of that particular case, as disclosed during the review process. In this case, the staff, subcommittee and school all acknowledged the complexity of the waiver request. The NCAA staff received the waiver request from Ole Miss on Aug. 13 and received the final piece of information from the school on the evening of Aug. 30. After considering that final piece of information, the NCAA staff issued its decision the morning of Aug. 31. The appeal decision was given three days later.

AuburnGrad97 37 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Wow. I guess that makes them somewhat relevant again, but I still don’t drink the Masoli kool-aid (which is probably laced with hemp juice). He was going against PAC-10 defenses, where everyone scores 30pts a game. He may end up being a great QB in the SEC. I personally believe that this kid had his chance, and was given a "get out of jail free" card, and still got in trouble, so he shouldn't be eligible to play, but that is just my opinion.

AUAeroEngineer 0 Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 He doesn't deserve this. I hope he makes the best out of it, because in the real world, you don't get second chances, much less third chances. He needs to keep his butt in order Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
