he was a RS freshman last year at Ohio State and played in 9 games...

Phil Jurkovec has to be granted immediate eligibility, with JT Daniels and now Gill it'd be a travesty if they denied him. The NCAA is so f'd up.

I thought Alohi Gilman got screwed as it seemed he had a good argument with the Navy changing service requirements.

Regarding Phil, I thought he transferred mostly so he would have a better opportunity to play sooner. I never thought that circumstance yielded immediate eligibility.

I am suspicious some of these guys add other reasons than just they want an opportunity to play to get a favorable ruling. Maybe all it takes is you report a hostile environment or some other type of abuse at the old school.

Old people are vulnerable to covid, you know.

Seriously. I think there are a couple guys who specialize in getting transfer waivers approved by the NCAA, and Tom Mars is one of the more well known. Many of the players over the past few years who have gotten immediate waivers have utilized him.

There are probably some circumstances that can be cited beyond a sick grandmother that trigger approval.

That certainly sounds like a very good reason to me. Wonder if tat removal was part of the deal?

It's okay, it's Cartier.
