Jamil Burroughs (former Alabama DT) enrolled and practicing with team. Update: not eligible for 2023 per cribby

[Hurracanes]

Gun to my head, my guess he will play based off logic with how this played out like a few have expressed.

Almost an immediate starter just due to him being the big bodied run stuffer. If he’s eligible I’m sure he will get plenty of burn and soon

Kinda-sorta. If you look at the timing, it was mid-summer semester (same as Graves). Some of your financial aid is for housing, food, etc.

So...you could say "we are going to suspend you"...and the player could say "Portal, dude", and then still be enrolled in classes, while school could say "we're cutting you off", and then it all sets up for a "winnable" appeal.

Such as what happened with Chris Graves.

I guess normally a student physically assaults an employee of the school that would get him kicked out… him getting kicked out of school, “not just off the team” would have made him immediately eligible at his next school?

Bigger body, but has similar vibe to Gerald Willis.

Here's what I don't understand. Some people are saying "a dismissal" will make you immediately eligible, and I'm not so sure that's true. The rules have NORMALLY been "if you do dirt, you pay the price". The loophole that Chris Graves sailed through is that he was in GOOD STANDING at Miami (had not committed a crime or flunked out) and we pulled his scholarship.

Again, I would point out that the Alabama websites reported that he was facing SUSPENSION, not expulsion.

We shall see. Gonna be interesting and might take a couple of weeks (assuming Mario and UM haven't begun a stealth waiver application already).

This site... dudes asking for pics of wood but will say Joy Taylor is a 5

It's the 21st C my guy.

He did NOT get kicked out. He likely had his financial aid pulled.

Isn't the effect the same? Just a way to save face. Kind of like allowing someone on staff to find another job though we really know the deal.

The form of the transaction matters. Even on something as simple as "SEC-to-SEC transfer". The SEC does not allow an SEC school to take a transfer from another school if he is in bad standing with the first school.

If the kid wants to get out of town ahead of the posse, he's entitled to do so.

As long as Bama “withdrew his aid” then he will be eligible. That is why Chris Graves is eligible at Ole Miss.

Why we do that? To clear roster spaces up?

Maybe a waiver. Not sure but I’m still digging. It’s weird there’s so many mixed reports

waiver or sit

Big boy making increases in our nutrition allowance.

Is this guy any good?

He'll yeah, this is the type of big angry SOB Miami can use. He got kicked out of BAMA for punching a Coach in the face, who was breaking up some rowdy players.

Go Canes

Have you seen what the guy he hit looks like?

[Golsen82]

The same people who said Laura Rutledge is a 4

Who's that?

 

[skeeter]

So he will have 1 year to play 1 next year? Not optimal, but still helps a lot.
