'20 AL ATH Damarcus "Dee" Beckwith (Tennessee signee)

Football trumps all other sports when it comes to scholarships. I think it’s a way to prevent hiding football players on no revenue teams.

Griddle gets inside info

Gridscape.

Gridscape.

yeah, Griddie was a reliable poster on Gridscape. Wonder whatever became of Jumpmaster?

This has probably already been discussed, but does Barnes have enough scholarships available to offer Beckwith or Wideman, if necessary?

Then he could only play basketball. Would not be allowed to even practice football.

Looks like Mullens wife definitely has an eye for talent.

If you're on basketball scholarship you can't play football unless you're on football scholarship. ...

Barnes does not have to offer because Football has to give the scholly if they play both.

Florida has to be full at this point....

 

[GojiraVol17]

With that former 5 star WR Justin Shorter transferring to Florida, you’d think that tells us Dee is almost assuredly gonna be ours. One can hope. I’ve had my eyes on this one for a while and hopefully it comes to fruition.

No, it's a back count, meaning he counts towards the next year. I guess we could be saying the same thing, but at the end of the day it counts towards next year.
Bylaw 15.5.6.3.3 A student-athlete not recruited (per Bylaw 15.02.8) by the institution who receives institutional financial aid (based in any degree on athletics ability) after beginning football practice becomes a counter but need not be counted as an initial counter until the next academic year if the institution has reached its initial limit for the year in question. However, the student-athlete shall be considered in the total counter limit for the academic year in which the aid was first received.

A BACK count is an early enrollee who counts BACK to the prior year’s class. It’s only possible if the prior year’s class didn’t have 25 initial counters. Blue shirts count forward. Not back. So they’re forward counters.

So one of our 4 early enrollees could count back to the 2019 class if, as some have suggested, we have an open spot under the 25 from 2019. Williamson, should he enroll and blue shirt, will count forward to the 2021 class.

It's like a giant hole that constantly years to be filled.

they probably swing....but I am sure that is an exclusive group. They are not swinging with your average everyday swingers.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Huh? Is that how it goes for all 2 sport athletes? Are you sure about that?

It is called the Bear Bryant rule...google it and you will find out everything you need to understand it.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the rule actually reads that if a player plays multiple sports, the scholarship counts against the highest revenue sport. Most assume that is football, and in 99% of cases, it is, but not necessarily.

The rule could in fact read that way, and you would be correct, that’d be football errtime.

So Vanderbilt would be able.... never mind

Not quite. Football does trump, but it's not based on revenue. Here's the chart from the manual showing the order of precedence.

I stand corrected. Thanks!

 

[Jackcrevol]

So what was with AP's post earlier?

 

[GojiraVol17]

What post?

 

[VolInDayton]

Does anyone know if Florida is officially full with Shorter? I have tried to look at UF boards but they all apear to be designed by UF fans.

They count forward, back and simply don't count. It's new math and the UF way.
