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

[TheOriginalCane]

I think if 'Bama dismissed him he's eligible.

No, I think it is the withdrawal of financial aid. The "dismissal" could actually work against him, though it seems like it was a "both sides agreed to part ways" version of a "dismissal", which is good.

Look, I'm just being honest, I do NOT know all of the details of Burroughs' Alabama situation here, I am just trying to lay out the rules as I know them to be.

We should know soon. Don't order your Burroughs jersey at AllCanes yet. YET.

Wow! Alabama is strict about its open-carry laws: can’t be a gel pellet gun…

 

[Geddy Lee]

he has 2 years right?

3 I believe. 2020-Covid Year, redshirted in 2021, and played as a 3rd year freshman last year. 4th year soph this year.

So far we have Gaby stating this with no proof nor evidence nor any official statement.

Which is why I am taking the rules at face value and the rules are clear on this one.

Who says he has no proof? He reported he is immediately eligible. You think he reported that without following up? Quite the assumption there ya chili dog nerd. Or should I say chili frankfurter dork.

FWIW, the Sun Sentinel is also reporting he will be eligible, according to a source.

So Miami is under the impression he will be eligible.

Waiting for Gary Ferman's story. He'll have all the details.

It's Gaby from 247. I'm fairly certain he reported this without a follow-up.

Mario has these reporters doing whatever the heck he wants when he wants with keeping this quiet holy ****

 

[StevoBevo]

IF he is eligible we cannot understate how massive of a pickup this is…6’3 315 is great size and IF he is Eligible he immediately becomes one of our top 4 DTs…

Gotta imagine this has been in the hush hush for a while and he has been getting info on the Defensive playbook, getting his conditioning in etc etc depending on how long he has truly been with the team I would hope he is ready to go ASAP.

Top 6 DT rotation of:

Leonard Taylor
Branson Deen
Jamil Burroughs
JHH
Ahmad Moten
Joshua Horton

 

[Geddy Lee]

This addition could allow Miami to redshirt Horton

I gotta love how Cribby goes "It's not fully determined", yet when Gaby from 247 reports it, its "COME ON, ITS GABY YA DONKEY, OF COURSE ITS TRUE"

 

[JayCane20]

Waiting for Gary Ferman's story. He'll have all the details.

Gary is going to say something along the lines of they knew he was already enrolled because he was unblockable and this was the guy's helmet that TVD hit his hand on and hurt his finger when he drew the pressure on the throw

 

[GrozDozer]

Sources that have told us they are being told he’s eligible: Gaby, Cribby, Sun Sentinel, Canesville

Sources telling us we have to follow the rules and he’s ineligible: Guy from Germany

 

[AllAboutTheU]

Here it says that Gaby confirmed he will be eligible this year, TIFWIW

Gaby def didn’t confirm that

 

[407cane]

Waiting for Gary Ferman's story. He'll have all the details.

good idea. Ferman's story will solidify it. whatever the opposite of what he says is the absolute truth

 

[305to954]

That Deejay Dallas silent commit finally revealed

 

[GrozDozer]

This guy is praying he’s ineligible so he can be right. I hate the poRsters on here. So sad.

 

[TheOriginalCane]

he has 2 years right?

He only "used" two years at Alabama (2020 was the COVID year). So I think he has 3 years to play 2. But it could be 3 years to play 3 if he was redshirted in 2021. If this is correct, he qualifies for a redshirt for 2021:

Cribby has not said he is eligible for certain.

But keep digging with the ad hominem, I'm sure you'll find someone to laugh at it.
