    It sounds like the issue is that he was enrolled in classes and then did not attend or participate in those classes, so he likely failed them. That would make him academically ineligible. The primary fault is on the advisor, but this is a lesson learned the hard way that you cannot assume and go on the word of someone without authority.

    We've known about it for a while and if you remember he missed some practices. When he came back thought that is was resolved / resolving. But of course the NCAA can screw up a good kid doing what he thought he was supposed to do and turn their head to obvious shady crap. It's not over, we are trying but just total BS. And screw that TCU advisor that's now gone too

    I think it may be more about being enrolled at two schools at the same time, not grades. Because, unless someone at TCU ran his scholarship papers without him being there, he wouldn't have grades if his tuition wasn't paid. Right?

    I think that it's the fact he enrolled as a graduate student there then transferred after.

    Educated adult vocabulary just doesn't seem to convey the true emotion of it. Thus, that is some kind of f**ked up!! No way they do this to a Bama player.

    Takes away what I thought could be one of our best position tandems this season.

    Well…I hate it for the kid but this is one of the issues with unchecked portal transfers and the NCAA is about 5 years from being no more in my opinion

    Known what for awhile?.that his transfer was going to be denied and we were prepared for it? Which I find hard to believe, bc that would have been leaked by someone close to the program. Someone knows someone who knows someone that posts on this board. I think we weren?t expecting a denial, and we took it in the a$$ as always!

    I don't understand how the appeal could be denied. Is there no common sense left in the world

    It sounds to me like we assumed that he would win the appeal.

    It seems like we have an awful lot of issues getting players eligible for an "exemplary compliance department". It seems like we have something like this happen at least once a year.

    What? So 4 years from now they can tell us those wins and losses don't technically count on the record book? Who cares

    Knowingly playing an ineligible player wouldn't just be forfeited games years down the road. It would be immediate forfeiture every game he plays this season. Not to mention the SEC could and most likely would penalize our athletic department for knowingly doing so.

    That was the advice Bob Tyler got in 1975 re: Larry Gaillard

    Yeah we would definitely get reamed for this and there's no reason for us to put CZA in the fire with the ncaa and the sec. Heck if this happened CZA would wind up getting screwed worse that JWS!

    Paul had a great tweet. Arik Gilbert got cleared, but Spivey did not. Make it make sense.
