I have a theory about USC’s opposition in this process. TOTALLY unfounded…just compiled tinfoil conjecture fwiw. Bru is a rare high level WR who was rubber stamped for USC since forever. Something went sideways immediately upon arrival. So he transferred to Texas and then returned out of residual loyalty. There was a load of skill position talent there under Helton and a load of rotten culture that wasted Bru’s development even before the alleged girlfriend incidents. That ship sailed but the think tank that remains envisions Bru developing in Knoxville at an epic level and after 1-2 (more likely one and done) seasons entering the NFL as a Vol. Just grates for them that they wasted a potential legacy and like so many academic kindergartners, they want to make it difficult. Not playing the long game if he does end up a star and recollects the reindeer games they pulled 2-3 of his years in their program. High road wins more often than not. Hope the light bulb powers up before the season.

basically them signing that he wasnt able to play due to circumstances makes him immediately eligible without ncaa needing to sign off (one signature vs. black box). they wont sign that

to state maybe the obvious other part of this.. he's transferred before and is not a grad transfer

To add to this...if Bru does develop here and heads to the nfl, it's MORE egg on USC's face, considering he would then join the line that has formed of players who have left there, and found a wonderful home in Knoxville. Guys that have had big time impacts on our program.

Central to my theory...debunked as it was by The King. ;)

I don't want to overly speculate but besides being a pain in the ass, my guess on the logic on the USC side is: does acknowledging in writing that he would not have been allowed to play, expose them to a lawsuit from Bru for essentially forcing him to transfer

Well, that would be a tactic, but it's not a cause of them hiding behind a feckless legalistic claim. If USC didn't want to stop the transfer they would sign whatever form the NCAA wanted. Doesn't make any practical difference. And if the NCAA didn't want to stop the transfer, the NCAA would override USC in 30 seconds by signing an exception. It sounds like, from your description, the two parties are conspiring to pretend there is an issue.

Well the ncaa hasn’t been involved until recently bc usc said they’d sign it

tennessee has taken a transfers and recruiting staff from USC... Hurt feelings and probably a bit of belief that tampering was going on (everybody does it) just being a pain in the ass that won't get exposed
