Swell...

GO MEAN GREEN!

Well that stinks!  Good luck to him.  Maybe he can qualify late or sign with a juco.

How are so drawn to grate tallanted players who don't meet the requirements to go to collage? So our scouts not do homework on highschool players?

Hate to see it but it's not a position of need.  We lose English for some reason and I will curse the football Gods (once again)

[Marty]

Well, at least he isn't flipping to another school. Hope we can sign him later.

Is there a big need to shoot our wad on February 3, and not hold some scholarships for later? This kid has apparently stuck with us and we should return the favor. Stay in touch and give him a scholarship if he can graduate this summer. JMO.

I know it screws up the timing of assimilating him into the system but he would probably be a redshirt which will benefit us next year.

Unintentional humor is funny.

I don't get it. Is the kid just a junior now? Or is he a senior flunking 12th grade?

His 247 page shows him as a Class of 17 kid.

He's a senior who is unlikely to qualify.

Well that is simple enough, but the article says that he could stay for another year of high school. Most non-qualifiers go to JUCO or prep school or just keep taking more SAT/ACT tests. Never heard of a non-qualifier pulling a Wooderson.

Picked up an offer from Kansas this week.

This is the most confusing recruitment/non-recruitment of an athlete I can ever remember.

I think he was just trying to graduate a year early and thought last summer that he would be able to, but wasn't able to after all so now he's back with his original class (2017), and getting recruited as such.
