The NCAA has only themselves to blame - they can not let another school's in-house ruling affect what they deem kosher for eligibility.

geez man why is everyone so quick to judge and put the kid down??? man he made some mistakes and hopefully he is working on bettering himself as a human being. i cant stand when grown men (or women) randomly bash a kid with zero knowledge of the kid or his character first hand. no none on here knows the circumstances which led him to make some very poor choices but geez cut him some slack. blast at way at me if you feel the need but it gets old seeing people continually bash teenage kids for wrong doing especially when most would not be singing the same tune if the kid played for bama. i know some of these are just jokes IMO there is little room for it.

as for him being cleared, good for him it was the right decision by the NCAA regardless. i still say it is a dumb rule but the ncaa created it so they have to abide by it. should be fun to watch for sure!

I just cant morally agree with this. He committed a crime and violated team rules. His coaches punished him so he left to escape that punishment. I'm all for second chances, but this was not the right way to earn it.

Personally, and from a pure football perspective, I'm looking forward to watching him play.

*ducks for cover* ;)

You think you could get accepted to grad school if you applied on August 13 at Ole Miss and were not a football player. I wonder who will sue ole miss for getting declined admission to post grad studies? I dont have a dog in this hunt but it sounds like something Oilbama do. LOL

Be that as it may, why should the NCAA step in and stop him from enrolling elsewhere?

I posted enough in the other thread that I completely disagree with the NCAA allowing this. Sorry the problems we have with todays society is that the youth does not have to be held accountable for their actions and so if it does not work out for them they just go somewhere else and run from responsibility. It also shows how desperate Nutt is to keep his job by trying to do everything he can to win. Oh well I am glad he coaches there and not at UA.

As a UA fan I am glad though because I did not want to hear any excuse from Ole Miss fans why we beat them this year.
