He transferred before the waivers rule change so I assume he'd be grandfathered in if he had a legit request and won the NCAA lottery of random decisions.
Another player not that long ago received a waiver that transferred roughly the same time. The NCAA seemingly has been favorable in granting waivers when coaching changes have occurred. He tried a semester with the new coach and then left. Would not be totally stunned if the waiver was granted.
Kuran Iverson was the player I was thinking of. Transferred from Memphis to URI I think.

I thought the NCAA passed a ruling that all transfer must sit out a year.
No more immediate eligibility exceptions.

A rational basis - plus - evidence the worm may be turning - ISU WBB received two medical redshirts this year.
They did, but Burton transferred BEFORE they passed that rule therefor his appeal is grandfathered in.
We're not. My bad, I read it wrong. It says the 6 foul rule applies to everyone EXCEPT the D1 Men's BB. Sorry. I read the rulebook (http://www.ncaa.org/sites/default/files/2015-17 Men's Basketball Rules Changes FINAL.pdf see rule 4-12.1) before I read the D1 site (http://www.ncaa.com/news/basketball...hot-clock-30-seconds-makes-other-changes-game)
Well, there was a coaching change, which got the dude who played for OU who's name escapes me at the moment a waiver. I suppose the fact that Burton actually gave the new coach a chance for a semester rather than immediately transferring means he won't get a waiver.
exactly, great for Edozie and all, but we wasted our one chance with the NCAA on a questionable thing.
Yeah it's ridiculous how often ISU doesn't get a waiver and then you look around the country and see guys get it. There is a guy that had the same facts that is going to play right away.
The crowd funding for his travel expenses isn't legal. He has to donate any money left to charity
The NCAA allowed him to keep the funding, provided he only uses it for actual expenses and donates the rest to charity.
It has nothing to do with Burton.
Huh?

Just makes no sense. Ever.
Probably because he moved closer to home. Doubt Burton will get approved since he moved further from home just like McKay.
Do the right thing here, NCAA!
NCAA response: "LOL you're still ISU, right? DENIED."
