Sandvol,
You just continue to outdo yourself, don't you? It's difficult to imagine you looking anymore ridiculous, but you just keep topping yourself!
1. Do you really think I thought on that for two days? I have a life, Sandvol; I only jump on here occasionally. You should look into trying to get one, but I'm guessing this site is the closest thing you have to friends.
2. I'm sure my dissertation will be done in record time as I do all my academics. Of course you will NEVER do one. The stupidity of your posts leaves little doubt as to why.
3. "Wearing out those degrees"?? Look buddy, YOU brought up academics with the "calculus and physics" statement, not me. You assumed I was an idiot because I was a good athlete, and you were wrong. You opened the subject, couldn't compete, and now are trying to trash me for being better than you at both athletics and academics. If you can't measure up, then don't pick that fight.
4. I hope you do continue to voice your opinion-that's what we're all here for. But let me recommend that you lay off trashing hard-working athletes for no good reason when you have accomplished NOTHING athletically in your life, and probably nothing of note in any other way either. And try THINKING before you express another opinion....if you're capable of it. If you choose not to then let me leave you with the words of Abraham Lincoln, "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt." Because sandvol, the more you speak, the more apparent it is how little you know....about anything. If you should TRY to retort again, please try and do better. Your replies are getting more pathetic every time.:salute:

Wow, you are so original too. I bet your dissertation's going to be amazingly original thought. And, you really impressed me with that 45 degree launch angle thingy. And, you know calculus and physics and you're an athlete. And, momentum too. You'd really impress me if you threw out a few quantum mechanics terms as they apply to basketball. And, what about string theory? Don't hold your intelligence back.

VolNExile, that wasn't aimed at Diamond, just an observation of some "teammates" I've seen. I agree with your summation and wish her well wherever she goes, and I hope UNC and CSH do well...as long as they are not playing us or another SEC team!

Just in case the DeShields are lurking, right?

A true academic would realize that the above adage very likely did not originate with Abraham Lincoln, and thus would not definitively credit it to him in an impotent attempt to condescend to another. (Which makes the remainder of your comment all the richer.)

Oh, and it should be "try to," not "try and." Anyone who is actually writing a dissertation should realize that.

Please take your petty argument to another venue--nobody else wants to read your personal sniping, especially on this thread. Thank you.

AJ is the brother of Kaela Davis and she plays at GT.
No way DD is going to play on the same team with Kaela.

She can transfer to another ACC school but I believe that would mean she'd have to sit out 2 years instead of 1. I don't see her doing that. I'm still hearing it'll be UGA or TENN.

Volfan2012 posted this on another thread,"Diamond Deshields visiting Tennessee today 5/6/2014 hopefully she will commit and sign with UT."

Anyone know/heard anything relating to this? I Googled and can't find anything pertaining to it.

I didn't want to say anything but since someone else already leaked the information, yes, she was visiting TENN today.

Regardless of where it was reported, I was just saying that I wasn't saying anything until it was already out there. Glad to know that it is. Should know something very very soon from what I've been told.

That's not exactly correct either. Let's say she transfers to Tennessee. She would have to sit out a year before she can play. But, during that sit out year she must accrue a certain amount of academic eligibility. So, they can't transfer and just sit at home for a year and wait they must be going to school. If UNC grants her release UT can put her on scholarship immediately but she couldn't play that first year but still be on scholarship. If she went to GT the ACC wouldn't allow them to put her on scholarship that year so she would have to pay her own way. She still only has to sit out a year but she has to accrue academic credits during that year.

Sandvol, can the year at a non ACC school count as a red shirt year, three years of eligibility left, but if she goes to an ACC school it counts as an 'eligibility' year, only two years of eligibility left? Must stay academically qualified wherever she goes.

Read on another site that was an ACC rule, not an NCAA rule. I don't know, just wondering........

For what it is worth (note it is almost two years ago):

NCAA transfer rules too inconsistent
