I'm thinking that has to be an inside joke, or a nickname, or something. If it was for real, surely someone would have told him by now and he would've switched it.

Right...because posts like this constitute a considerably higher level of discourse...

He's got a much more complicated transcript to straighten out, too. He came through JUCO and Grambling, and the grade issues predate his time here at North Texas.

With Tony, he's got 2 semesters at our school, and that's it. Patton has 4 years of college at 3 different places. Assuming he does have the problem solved, it isn't as quick and easy a rubber stamp as what we needed for Tony's eligibility.

Also, it sounds like he still doesn't have formal approval for immediate eligibility (like what Franklin got to avoid a redshirt year). We pulled the request when the academic ineligibility became apparent.

In this case:

1- Does North Texas think he's in good academic standing?

2- Does the NCAA certify him as academically eligible?

3- Does the NCAA grant him an immediate eligibility transfer waiver?

All Tony had to do was show 2 long semesters in residence at North Texas, with at least 24 credit hours and an acceptable GPA.

Isn't the semester over? If he was academically eligible wouldn't we know by now?

His previous school is resubmitting some information to the NCAA, it isn't just UNT work that needs to be taken care of before the NCAA rules.

Well I'm sure Grambling is taking their sweet time to make sure they don't have to play against him tomorrow...
