I talked to his parents Thursday on the shuttle bus from parking to WF. Really nice people.
Yeah, I'm sure he's a good kid, just not sure what kind of b.s. he was fed from Kansas or what kind of future he envisioned when he went there. He didn't even start at Drake in 2021.
Yeah you may be right it is hard to keep track. of all the transfer changes.
He'd be out of control in Fran's system IMO lol
In all fairness he does have a National Championship ring with Kansas. Guessing Kansas found out they had a really shallow point guard bench. So they gave him the sell of getting a lot of playing time. Now they are back up to speed in the guard court. Yesufu should just go play for a SoCon team like Furman or Samford. He would be very valuable
Man, I wanted to get this kid when he left Illinois last year and thought we would have a chance with him being a midwest kid. Had such a good year, he's putting his name into the draft. But maybe he is just getting feedback and we could take interest again. But now that I say that, he just had his one time transfer this year, so he would have to sit out. I guess. Still say those 'rules' they posted makes one wonder if there is still going to be loopholes.
You are correct, and the NCAA has claimed they are going to essentially stop waivers since the free transfer rule is in place. Since (ahem) GRAD TRANSFERRING IS NO LONGER A THING he would be a sit-one play-one. Unless the NCAA continues to hand out waivers. Who really knows at this point.
I don't think anyone knows the rules at this point. I'm seeing so many guys transferring for the 2nd or 3rd time and I just don't understand what's going on
The rules are this. You can transfer as many times as you want with no penelty. Unless you transfer to Iowa State. Then you have to sit out for a year and a half.
Here is wording from an NCAA Q&A on grad transfers. Sounds like there is a waiver process to be immediately eligible.
Q13: What if the student-athlete transferred previously from another four-year school as an
undergraduate student?
A13: Generally, a student-athlete who has previously transferred from another four-year school
would not be able to use the one-time exception as a postgraduate transfer. However, a
waiver process exists for postgraduate students with a previous transfer history.
Also I seem to remember reading an article from last fall that an NCAA committee on continuing the immediately eligible grad transfer rule was set to vote on it last fall, but tabled the motion. Is it possible they meet again this spring and would give the OK.
