JT Daniels Immediately Eligible at UGA

and it appears as though, and yall can correct me if I am wrong, but that he is only transferring because he got replaced due to a season ending injury. How does that qualify as a reason for immediate eligibility when a guy moving closer to home does not?

This is absurd and unless I am missing something he is simply getting preferential treatment because he is transferring to a big time program. I would just about guarentee if he were transferring to state/OM/KY etc. he wouldn't receive immediate eligibility.

The NCAA is an unscrupulous group that plays favorites every day of the week with no rhyme or reason to their decisions on things. THEREFORE, I am at this point totally for going back to the old rules that if you transfer you sit unless you are a grad transfer, just the way it should be. I would be for allowing a 6th year to a guy that chooses to transfer after burning a redshirt year so he doesn't lose a year of eligibility but that's about it. Even when a guy transfers and is sitting out he almost always is already put on full scholarship and is getting his free education so there is nothing lost on that end. It worked just fine for decades until someone had the bright idea that certain situations should allow you to skirt the rules.
