Oliver Martin Derangement Syndrome

[BLHawk]

It’s been having to suppose to happen the last two weeks now.

There are a lot of different theories being floated around about what is taking so long....the ones that I can remember:

1- Paperwork was submitted much later than what was originally stated
2- NCAA denied it and Iowa appealed
3- NCAA approved and UM/Harbaugh threw a fit and provided more info for them to review
4- NCAA has approved but the B1G also needs to approve and that is still pending

It'd be interesting if Harbaugh threw a fit.. Didn't he come out and say and positively comment about Oliver and his decision?

Our baby brothers over on Hokeye Pokey Forum are all up in arms over the rumors of Oliver Martin leaving Michigan and transferring to the hoks. Apparently this isn't quite correct.

Talked with his dad over the weekend: Facts
He loves Michigan.
He's not ever leaving.
If he did, ISU would be his lean more then Iowa.
His field efforts do not out weigh his degree efforts.

Iowa's lack of WR involvement hurt and is still hurting with the newest recruits.

I'm sure this has been brought up, but wow was this bad info.

Only comments I remember from Harbaugh were saying he was surprised by the decision to transfer and that Martin was at the top of their depth chart.

A few posters on HR are saying he's been cleared to play.

Why would the B1G have to approve this? Shouldn't NCAA be top approval?

With the NCAA I'm gonna sit in the "I'll believe it when I see it" boat

They're right on this one but let's face it whatever "insider info" out on HR is usually wrong

 

[theiacowtipper]

Would he have started at Iowa if he transferred there?

That was a disgusting move by Campbell. Blocking a transfer to Iowa is fine. I get that. But UNI and Drake? Come on.

Understandable. The poster(s) that have saying as such have good sources typically. I'll go ahead and get my hopes up.

 

[theiacowtipper]

That is very common in schools to not allow them to transfer within conference or to a rival. No idea why he wouldn't let him go to UNI or Drake however.

Ferentz didn’t block Rudock from going to Michigan. Quality man.

We play UNI almost every year, and Park was not going to go to a non-scholarship school and pay his way so that's a moot point.

Is that the word from your sources as well? If so, I'm gunna bust out the guac and chips.

Ruddock was also garbage. I wouldn't be surprised if Kirk pushed him to go there with the hopes Iowa got to play him.

Yeah I heard he got the waiver

Not only did he not stink, but Harbaugh got him drafted. Yeahbuddy and others actually included him in their Iowa QBs drafted.

Well that just doesn't count. We don't include Wesley Johnson as ISU players that got drafted..

Wow. Adding a former 4* top 200 WR this year is pretty good news for Nate. Really impressed this kid was able to get playing time early at The University of Michigan.

Didnt Ruddock grad transfer? If so Ferentz couldn't block him from going anywhere.
