Now the guy is back. Again, not a problem for me, but potentially a credibility issue for the staff. That's all that I am sayin'.NormalCredibility because he reinstates a former scholarship player as a walk-on? A guy that has exactly one year of eligibility versus the other three that have 5 to play 4?I think that's stretching it a bit. If a parent or player was that sensitive, especially considering they signed before he left, then they probably weren't good for the team anyway. I mean if he took a kid that suddenly became available at the 11th hour, with 2 or more years of eligibility left, at their position and gave him a schollie...well that I could see if the families would feel slighted. But reinstating a former player as a walk-on to give him one more year is a bit of a stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The waiver requires him to identify a graduate degree that isn't offered at his current school, but it's another option for him ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
