'17 GA DT Aubrey Solomon (NCAA IS A FAIR ORGANIZATION)

So just for reference every transfer from Tennessee has immediate eligibility and there were only 7 transfers (Not very many)

Michigan has somewhere between 13 - 16 guys transferring and only 3 are ruled immediately eligible right now. (First off note the number of transfers, thatā€™s absolutely ridiculous)

This shows a lot about the culture of the Michigan program right now.
That does seem like a lot of guys bailing on them. It's not like Harbaugh is a new coach getting rid of another coaches guys either. These were all his recruits.

Exactly. I think one of the guys Tennessee had transferring was a walk on QB that Iā€™ve never heard of.

Michiganā€™s I didnā€™t research but they canā€™t all be walk-ons leaving.....

I also heard on a radio show that coach Pruitt writes the NCAA explaining why they should be granted eligibility. Not saying thats the reason they were granted eligibility just thought that was awesome if true.

A bunch are graduates or walkons. Of the 6 showing a waiver status, 3 are approved, 2 denied, Aubrey pending.

Fwiw 247 lists 18 total outgoing. Hell of a lot.

8 outgoing for us.

It is a major reason they were all granted immediate eligibility.

Walkons still need waivers. Unless they're grad transfers.
If they were a walk on at the previous institution they wouldn't. That's what I'm talking. Guys in the 247 portal that have no ranking, I'm assuming they were walkons.

Yes they would. It's why Baker had to sit at Oklahoma even though he was a walkon at tech and then walked on at Oklahoma.

It is new. Passed this year.

DI Council adjusts transfer rules

"Additionally, walk-on student-athletes on teams that provide athletics aid and nonrecruited walk-ons can transfer and play immediately without a waiver. Those rules are effective for students who transfer to new schools this fall"

Well I did not know that.
 
So just went back and counted Michiganā€™s Transfers - 13 of the 15 or 16 were ranked. Which means they were probably on scholarship.

Of those 13 players only 3 had received immediate eligibility and at least 2 of those 13 are sitting a year.
 
It's because the Michigan AD submits a statement saying the player transferred of his own volition for playing time. That's not valid grounds for a waiver, which leads to denial. Michigan can act coy and play semantics about not blocking waivers all they want; the new process requires a statement from the previous school stating why the player transferred and Michigan knowingly sabotages the player's chances.

By contrast, UT lets players know upfront that if it doesn't work out for them at UT, the coaches will help them find a school that's a better fit. UTAD helps players, even going the extra mile of making calls on their behalf before and during the transfer process.

The way it should be. The player is going to transfer anyways...why try to screw up the time he has left to play college football? Thatā€™s acting like a little whiney 2 year old.

I think that the amount of Transfers from Michigan that are not eligible should throw up a red flag to the NCAA Committee.

Also, Vol Twitter itā€™s about time to get involved. So get on it VOL Twitter assemble!
