He’s really on had two injuries, one serious enough that he missed three seasons, then an early season ender the year after he came back. He played two injury-free season after that. This is simply an extreme situation that is unlikely to occur again. More power to him. I hope he’ll have at least a couple advanced degrees when he’s done.Bootsy wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 6:31 amNot sure I'd want to be known as the guy who spent 9 years as an undergrad so he could continue playing college football.
As injury-prone as the kid has shown to be, how likely is his dream of having an NFL career?
Sorry, but this is clearly an object lesson on "know when to say when."
My understanding is he got a three-year medical waiver because his injury was so significant that he was out that long. He will have only played five seasons. I think the NCAA got this one right.EastHallApp wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 12:17 pmI don't mind that he wants to play. I do think it's ridiculous that the NCAA allowed it. Nothing matters anymore.
Think about how many coaches he has seen during his tenure at Miami.Bigdaddyg1 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 6:54 amI like when someone posts about an App guy that he "got a job and is moving on with life". I read this article last night and could not believe the guy actually was in the signing class of 2016. So by the time he's actually done playing two complete groups (based on 4 years of college) will have come and gone. I think the absolute max should be 6 years to include a freshman redshirt year and maybe one for medical if that happens. Personally I think the extra grad school year is ridiculous. Do all of these guys who do this actually stick around for the Spring and continue in college?
He was only at Miami this past season.AppWyo wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 3:13 pmThink about how many coaches he has seen during his tenure at Miami.Bigdaddyg1 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 6:54 amI like when someone posts about an App guy that he "got a job and is moving on with life".

Sounds like without the medical waiver, he’d have finished his college career a while ago. I don’t have an issue with someone finishing off eligibility in their 5th year.goapps93 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 1:52 pmMy understanding is he got a three-year medical waiver because his injury was so significant that he was out that long.

Van Wilder only went 7 years/\PP ST/\TE GRAD 09 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 7:45 amAm I the only one that read this and now has the desire to watch Van Wilder?
One one year is Covid year so not that bad. Still a long time to be hanging around college ball but there is clearly a good reason. I think ECU had a 7 year player a few years ago even before Covid gave a free year to all.goapps93 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 1:52 pmMy understanding is he got a three-year medical waiver because his injury was so significant that he was out that long.

He's 25 or 26 years old.goapps93 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 1:52 pmMy understanding is he got a three-year medical waiver because his injury was so significant that he was out that long.

So? Chris Weinke was when he was at FSU, after playing pro baseball. What does his age have to do with it? He had a devastating injury and the NCAA allowed him to keep his eligibility.fjblair wrote: ↑Sat Jan 20, 2024 10:10 amHe's 25 or 26 years old.goapps93 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 19, 2024 1:52 pmMy understanding is he got a three-year medical waiver because his injury was so significant that he was out that long.
