Harper's Eligibilty???
- Thread starter rob1215
- Start date
Sorry to hear that.:sad:
But will he be in Ames greyshirting like the previous post suggests?
He's not listed as an active student when you type his name into the phone/email search on the ISU homepage. That is usually the best way to know if someone is enrolled at the university, and his name brings nothing up. Not a good sign.
Correct. To get the greyshirt a student-athlete HAS to enroll as part time to delay his eligibility clock starting. It doesn't matter where just as long as it is part time.
Really I don't think we've been bad at TE. Maybe not great, but there have been moments. Walter Nickel was exciting at times - Houtson Bowl, when he rolled over the defender, kept his feet, but was called "down".[/quote]
WOW that Walter Nickel catch in the Houston Bowl was sick, too bad the zebras blew the call.

So a JUCO or community college would count, right? Anyone able to check the DMACC student listings?
I've long understood it that the eligibility clock does NOT start running until the day a student-athlete first enrolls in college. Thus, no reason to enroll until January, when the clock would start, I take it.
However, perhaps I've long understood the subject wrongly. Oh . . . unless I misunderstand, and you're saying by enrolling part-time, not full-time, the clock does not start?
If Chase were to enroll at ISU part-time, though, he could not be on athletic scholarship, correct? That might be an expensive route to take. So, maybe Chase won't arrive here till January?
So...check on the 25th?
I just hope Chase makes it to ISU sometime. He looks like not only a special player, but a good person if he's DD's good friend
This is correct. The clock starts when you become a full-time student. In order to play you must be enrolled as a full-time student.
Alson, I believe with the grey shirting you need to have 24 credits within the past year prior to the start of the school year of the year you are playing. Basically, 8 in the fall, winter, and summer semesters for Chase to be eligible to play next fall. I believe this second part is correct, but am not totally sure and am confused enough by the NCAA to not feel the need to look it up. :wink:
I'm missing something in your explanation, I think, because I understand that a grayshirt goes somewhere part time (no more than 8 creds) in the Fall, then can enroll full time at ISU in the Spring term--and be counted against the next season's scholly total (the whole point of grayshirting). As we will be seeing Ethan for Spring ball.
Chase, I think, is a different bucket of nuts and bolts that I'm sure will be sorted out (here) over the next two weeks. For example, is he a Partial Qualifier? Does that distinction still even exist?
