Ran a 4.6 40 at the combine in Islamabad and had a monster 35 inch vertical jump. Look for him to be a factor in the 2nd or 3rd round as the Patriots try to rebuild their TE corps with someone less tainted than Aaron Hernandez. - Mel Kiper Jr.

Somethings to ponder about Mackey (this coming from a Carencro Alum):

2005 - Sophomore at PORT SULPHUR High School - He transfered in to Carencro after being displaced by Hurricane Katrina.
2006 - Junior year he made All District Selection.
2007 - Senior year he made 5A State MVP. *had verbally committed to Tulane but chose Duke 2 days before NSD.
2008 - Starts all 11 games as true freshman for Blue Devils. Dismissed from school following the football season due to violation of unspecified team standards.
2009 - Transfers from Duke to Tulane saying,"I never did feel comfortable at Duke." Sits out year per NCAA rules.
2010 - Starts inside LB for Green Wave.- All Conference pick.
2011 - Starts inside LB for Green Wave - All Conference pick.
2012 - Arrested for Robbery in August of 2012 and did not play at all. *Sued the NOPD in the process.
2013 - Acquitted of charges, mutual agreement to leave Tulane - Seeking 6th year of eligibility.

IMHO - WE DON'T NEED HIM...

He did not start one game at Duke

But he was the returning CUSA defensive POY, until the arrest.

Whatever Hud wants to do......solved.

Yep. In HUD we Trust. I'm sure they would be given a very short leash.

Under NCAA guidelines, Mackey will not be eligible to transfer to another program after earning his degree because it would be his third program. My understanding is the rule only applies to athletes that have remained at the same program. Duke, Tulane.....?

Not sure why you quoted that, i was simply mentioning he did not start a game while at Duke, he played mainly special teams

So what exactly does that mean, does that mean he can't play college football anymore?

Just added it to the last post in the thread, it wasn't directed at you. Yes, it would mean UL or Louisiana Tech would be his third program. My understanding is he is not eligible to play regardless of graduating and he won't be part of the UL program.

It just seems that all that would have been clarified before the big story of his plans on transferring and playing at the mentioned schools!!!
