Such an elite recruiter he signs him, gets him on campus, lets him go... JUST TO SIGN HIM AGAIN. Mario was just bored and needed to stay sharp.
Part of recruiting isn't just pulling in star rankings, but doing your due diligence on character evals. Burroughs, this guy, they're really desperate for a large, developed DT (why can't they develop one from the 4-5 they have? See: Feld) they're taking risks on culture killers
Is that Mario fishing?
For 50 years, your assumption is correct but ... Barrow enrolled for a summer session. He can enroll someplace new in the fall. There isn't anymore transfer enforcement from the NCAA. These changes just happened in the last few months through the courts.
Is he eligible to play via walk-on? Some booster is going to start a college fund in hometown for “Matriculators over 280#”. And he’ll win with a heartfelt essay
Still incorrect. Yeah he can just leave Miami and enroll with a different school but he will not be Eligible for a scholarship there. He cannot enter the portal anymore either because that window is closed now. So yeah, he can leave and go to a different school, but he can’t get a scholarship there. And this reality has been made clear to him, which is why you see communication has been happening back-and-forth with Miami. Odds are pretty good He’ll be back on the team.
I hope he is back on the team in Miami too. I didn't say the word scholarship.
Yes, but the issue is the transfer portal deadline. Cormani and few other players were able to do that, since they left before the portal closed on 5/1/24. If you remember, they just tweeked the rule where even grad transfers had to declare by 5/1/24 or be ineligible for fall and this is brand new. Since he is enrolled in miami now and received aid & portal closed, even as a walk-on he still would be ineligible for fall; unless miami dismissed him from team or he gets a hardship waiver. Also, with this publicity that he is enrolled now, it might dissuade Mizzou from tampering with him and his dad (i doubt it though). Think of borroughs last year. He came in after portal closed and not officially dismissed by bama (suspended). He walked on (not on scholly) and not a grad transfer (before new rule in place). He was on scout team. He would of played when we lost DT due to injury, if he was eligible as a walk on. Having said all this, its the SEC so if they really want him badly, the will find a loophole, hopefully his camp comes to its senses and he comes back ready to work.
That may keep him here. Keep him don’t let him go F that tell him ur staying and playing here man up *****
Ur last statement is the reason i have faith he won’t go to Mizzou. Sec protects teams in the spring transfer window with that lsu agreement I bet they won’t allow him to play
Well, Bain was always talked about on this site as a kid who was a 5 star talent. I know how challenging it is to project 6-4 310 pound kid and how they will project as freshman against grown men who have been in programs for 3-5 years. But with the 4 DTs we have ( if we lose barrow ) and with Scott I think we will be ok. He’s huge with solid technique and great feet.
No he can’t! Every school in the country would have 150 players in the roster and only 85 on scholarship if NIL allowed them to play as walk ons.
