rules question on the portal

If there's a loophole, let's get that big guy from Harvard.
December 5th, 2023 at 9:30 AM ^
for some reason, this isn't likely to happen
December 5th, 2023 at 9:55 AM ^
Why not? We did have the required number of OP’s for this beast.
December 5th, 2023 at 8:08 AM ^
There are for Michigan.

There's no rule preventing a player in the transfer portal from playing in the bowl game for his former team. There is a rule preventing a player in the transfer portal from playing in the bowl game for his new team. You can request a waiver, but it will get denied unless your new team is in the SEC.

Well they're never gonna play school anyhow in the SEC (except Vandy).

Was Lafayette in the SEC during The Yost Affair?

No. A winter semester transfer can participate in Spring Practice. Rosters for post season games are determined by Fall semester eligibility. E.g., if a player graduates in December, they do not need to.be enrolled in January to participate.
These rules are sensible and apply to all sports with postseason play extending beyond a normative semester or quarter.

There are sensible NCAA rules?

You can't transfer and then play for a new team within the same season. (Sorry for the ESPN link.)
If a player enters the portal now, can he transfer midseason and play for his new team?
No. It isn't like a professional sports trade. Players would need to wait to be eligible until the following season.

Clink would probably need all of spring and fall to un-trash Domani Jackson anyway.
December 5th, 2023 at 9:05 AM ^
And that's not to mention that Domani will be a true Junior so he ain't coming regardless. There have been rumors that ND is fixing its transfer credit issues (we'll see of course) which are similar to M's so hopefully M can finally swallow its pride and make some updates as well.

Domani Jackson is not in the transfer portal as far as I know.
OMG Shirtless:
Like with Hinton I like the idea of our near misses coming back into the fold.
Barner, Nugent, Henderson and Hausman (among other transfers) made a big difference this year.

I just wish there were some kind of free internet service where we could type in a question like this, and it would search the entire worldwide web for the answer, and display matching results.
I for one would use that a lot.

There might just be one - Google it!
December 5th, 2023 at 9:36 AM ^
I'll fire up Ask Jeeves on my Netscape browser as soon as I finish yelling at this cloud over here...
December 5th, 2023 at 11:51 AM ^
Probably just nostalgia, but in many ways I miss the 90s internet and technology...

I know what it is! It's called MgoOgle and it's the best search engine for the most difficult of football questions.
