This ruling may help he U in some of the transfers we are looking at

Advertisement
There is no law or precedent here for other schools. It was a Miami specific decision as I read it.
 
With wife a U lawyer and family members lawyers I learned one thing you never know how a ruling turns out. n how appeals turn out.
 
Whether it ever helps or hurts the Canes( and of course I hope it NEVER affects the Canes) if you bust your ***,graduate early,and have little chance of playing you should be able to go wherever you want.
I understand not wanting them to go to ACC schools or people on you’re schedule but as a HC you shouldn’t be worried about them giving away your playbook.
A HC should be able to use that as a positive and gameplan around that.If I know a guy thinks I’m going right on red when I play that team I go left.If Omaha means counter for example I make it mean screen pass.Use the knowledge you THINK that recruit is giving away to your advantage.

Not allowing a kid you deem not worthy of playing on your team to go somewhere where he might play looks foolish and petty to me.JMHO

I am not even sure how we could have stopped him, since he is a grad transfer.
 
This is a ruling only for one UM player and has nothing to do w any incoming transfers.

Weird that the athletic department had no say in this. He can go to 3 schools in our division? Lol Doubt he plays at any of those schools but you rarely see transfers in the division anywhere.

I thought it was pretty standard to block a kid, especially a qb, from going to an opponent. I guess they don’t wanna limit his academics.
 
Good news for Evan. I can't stand how schools look at these players as property at times.

I laughed big time at this... This is a Multi Billion dollar game and we just finished giving this kid a free ride scholly to hold a clipboard and probably get to bang quite a few co-eds by saying he was a QB for the team. This isnt some amateur intramural games

But yeah Im sure Richt would love to have to game plan against every single tendency he has because he knows wherever this bum goes hes just gonna hand deliver Richts calls. What If i told you hey next week everything you do you will need to do opposite to get similar results... including turning right when you need to turn left etc..

I am of the opinion that a student-athlete should be able to transfer to where ever the heck he wants to after he has graduated from his current school.
No exceptions.

Yeah, doesn't make any sense that a school has any input into where a kid goes after he graduates.

The school held up their end of the bargain in giving the student-athlete an academic free-ride and, similarly, the kid held up his end by
graduating, help the school APR and giving the program 3-5 years.
He should be permitted to transfer to wherever he wants to play for whatever reason.
And I'm even more adamant about this in a sport like college baseball, where athletes aren't even on full-rides.
 
100% Medley.

He fulfilled his part of the bargain and if he were just a normal graduate who got a coaching or support staff job at anywhere in conference, there isn't squat we could do about it.

Yet, the powers that be typically want to say no to some schools. I get their side as well, but I'll side with the athlete every time.
