The guy is a demigod in the offseason. Now he needs to deliver on the field.

Yes he’s really good. Kid wants to play defense apparently. Kind of like Kendrick Norton. But there’s still a good chance he ends up at OL, especially if our DT recruiting stays strong.

So with only one IC left, who would people take -- Williams or Walker?* I am super-impressed by Walker's ceiling, think he has far more potential. But I personally would take Williams because he is plug & play with no personal drama, which means he gives us a far better chance to win more games...

Thanks for clarifying. That's the conclusion I came to from reading the relevant bylaw sections, as well. Just wasn't 100% sure.

Regarding Asa Martin, there are a couple bylaws that provide counter exceptions for voluntary withdrawals. But they notably lack any specific relief for "initial counters". So, as best I can tell, Miami would need to request and receive a waiver from the NCAA. And if they haven't received it by...

I didn't see any exceptions to ICs related to graduate transfers. But I'm not an expert on NCAA bylaws, so anyone interested in digging further is welcome to. Here's the link to the manual: https://web3.ncaa.org/lsdbi/reports/getReport/90008 . The FBS initial counter section is 15.5.6. The LOI...

TOC, I agree with everything you wrote above. But hypothetically, Walker and Moise could be PWOs in the Fall and count to the 2021 class in the Spring if they truly wanted to play at Miami, correct? Or am I wrong there? It just seems to me that if their families qualify for need-based...

Without knowing their family situation, it may be possible, even likely, that Walker and Moise could get full coverage for the Fall under standard need-based financial aid and could practice with the team as PWOs. But they'd have to be REALLY motivated to go to Miami, given they could get an...

The issue is their ability to attend school in the Fall and receive financial aid as a student athlete. If we want to offer Williams, Walker or Moise an athletic scholarship to join the team this coming Fall, they must be counted towards the class of 2020. And it seems everyone agrees there are...

Couldn't they attend Miami on financial aid in the Fall, and be added to the 2021 class on football scholarship for the January term? That was the scenario I thought was being thrown around. In Walker's case, especially, that may be the best thing for the young man assuming his depression is...

If we can bring him in like Moise as a academic then convert that to a 2021 scholarship, I’m all for it. I thought his HS highlights were money. But ... if we can’t pull that hat trick off, I’d rather take the sure bet with the low floor in Williams right now to win in 2020 than the high risk...
