Richt blocks Gus

Why are people acting like the kid can't go where he wants?

Baker Mayfield wanted to transfer to Oklahoma. Texas Tech didn't want him to do that.

Baker Mayfield transferred to Oklahoma anyway. He was a walk-on at OU, and then converted to a scholarship after he sat out.

The system isn't unfair to these kids ... It just contains hurdles. The same hurdle a "buyout" or "conference non-compete clause" would be for a coach. If the next place wants you bad enough, they'll deal with it.

Considering he's a former Syracuse commit, it's way late in the game to be having "buyer's remorse". His time to leave would have been this past summer. He could have sat out the season, and would be eligible to play in 2017.

Because he can and aint a nothing any school can do about it except drag it out to the last minute. It's called a Graduate Exception.

According to this article your facts are at best "alternative". Care to elucidate?

The Graduate Transfer Exception vs. the Graduate Transfer Waiver

Graduate Transfer Exception

The graduate transfer exception builds off of the one-time transfer exception, the rule most often used by athletes in non-revenue sports to be eligible immediately after transferring. The one-time transfer exception requires the following:

The athlete has never previously transferred;
At the time of the transfer, the athlete would have been academically eligible had he or she remained; and
The athlete’s previous institution says it does not object to allowing the athlete to use the one-time transfer exception.

The sports of football, basketball, men’s ice hockey and baseball cannot normally use the one-time transfer exception. But they can if they fulfill the additional requirements as graduate students, in addition to everything above:

The athlete is enrolled in a specific graduate program;
The previous school did not renew the athlete’s athletic scholarship.

Most of this is a formality. The athlete still needs permission from his previous school to transfer and play immediately. If that permission is granted, the school will also often cancel or non-renew the athlete’s grant-in-aid agreement to fulfill the graduate exception.
Graduate Transfer Waiver

Despite the creation of the graduate transfer exception, the waiver lives on. It is now primarily used by athletes who have already transferred once, and thus are not eligible for the one-time transfer exception. The waivers are reviewed by the NCAA staff. If they are denied by the staff, they are appealed to the Division I Subcommittee on Legislative Relief.

These are the requirements for a graduate transfer waiver:

The athlete’s former school does not object to the waiver;
The athlete is enrolled in a graduate program not offered at the previous institution.

The school submits documentation that these requirements are met, along with a statement from the student-athlete. Generally any waiver that meets the requirements is granted. There is not reason to show “compelling mitigation” or anything quite so fuzzy.

Graduate Exception

The graduate exception is a version of the one-time transfer exception. It is for student-athletes who cannot use the normal one-time transfer exception because they play one of the sports that are not permitted to use the exception.

The student-athlete must have graduated with at least a bachelor’s degree;
The student-athlete meets the other requirements of the one-time transfer exception;
The student-athlete must have at least one season of competition left; and
The student-athlete’s previous school did not renew his or her athletic scholarship or offer an athletic scholarship for the following academic year.
The requirement that the scholarship be cancelled or not renewed is generally not an issue. The scholarship does not need to be cancelled before the transfer or be the reason for the transfer. Because the one-time transfer exception requires you to get a release, what will happen with your scholarship is generally just an administrative detail.


Gus is a Free Agent aint nothing U can do to stop it. Trust me Gus is pulling out because you don't want him and he know your just stringing him a long until McFarland signs and if he doesn't then Oh well why stick around when you have other fanbases that love you?

What about the part in red?
 
p.s., Berlin was allowed to transfer to us even though we played Florida

Wrong. Berlin sat out the 2002 season. UF didn't allow anything.

Berlin was not a graduate transfer. He sat because it's an NCAA rule. UF did release him which allowed him to be on scholarship during the year he sat out. That's all a release does. For a normal transfer (not graduate transfer), a release from your previous school does not mean you can play immediately.

He meet the one-time transfer requirement because he was a recruit and not a previous transfer. Therefore it is not an issue.

What about the bolded part below? Why do you keep ignoring that part?

One-Time Transfer Exception

The one-time transfer exception is the most commonly used exception for transfers from one four-year college to another, especially if the transfer involves two colleges in NCAA Division I or II.

If transferring to a Division I school, the athlete must play a sport other than football, men’s or women’s basketball, or baseball. The exception is that an athlete can transfers to a Football Championship Subdivision (FCS or I-AA) school and use this exception provided he or she has at least two seasons of competition remaining. In Division II, any sport may use the one-time transfer exception.
The athlete must not have previously transferred from another four-year school.
At the time of the transfer, the athlete would have been academically eligible at the previous school; and
If transferring from an NCAA or NAIA school, the athlete’s previous school states in writing that they have no objection to the athlete using the one-time transfer exception.

While the one-time transfer exception is the most commonly used, it is technically the last resort. If a student-athlete can find another transfer exception to use, it is generally better since they have fewer requirements and sometime make the transfer not count if the student-athlete needs to transfer again.

I read that and explained it to you again below. This is why AL and GA had to release their Graduates because in the end it doesn't matter if you OK the release or not for a Graduate.

One of the conditions of the 'Graduate Exception' is that:
"The student-athlete meets the other requirements of the one-time transfer exception;"

One of the conditions of the 'One-Time-Transfer Exception' is:
If transferring from an NCAA or NAIA school, the athlete’s previous school states in writing that they have no objection to the athlete using the one-time transfer exception.

If the school doesn't state that they have no objection, then all the conditions of the 'One-Time-Transfer Exception' would not be met.

Please note that the issue at hand is not about the scholarship.

Like you did with Moro you still continue to misunderstand the point. Whether you choose to use the word "block" or "force" to sit out a year; it does not matter for a graduate as the rule states. That is why you saw Saban argue the silly point until his hair turned blue and still loss! If anyone was going to find a loop hole to punish a player in terms of Graduate, he would have found it.

Because the one-time transfer exception requires you to get a release, what will happen with your scholarship is generally just an administrative detail.

They call this a Free Agent in the league.

You seem to struggle with the actual wording of the by-laws.

I would have to read that case as it relates to the BIG. That is why you need to understand ACC bylaws which do not have any restrictions on Graduate transfers. Gus is pulling out and you can't stop him.

I think the confusion here lies in the fact that when we are using the word "blocked" we are talking about forcing Gus to sit a year at his new school vs being able to play immediately. You for some reason seem to think in this context that the word 'blocked' means he can't ever go there.

Trying to have real discourse with you is like herding Moro's.

Like you did with Moro you still continue to misunderstand the point. Whether you choose to use the word "block" or "force" to sit out a year; it does not matter for a graduate as the rule states. That is why you saw Saban argue the silly point until his hair turned blue and still loss! If anyone was going to find a loop hole to punish a player in terms of Graduate, he would have found it.


I didn't do anything with Moro, he refused to show up at the meat. I knew you were his duplicate account.

I wonder if the mods will do anything about it.
