The system will get better once the “Covid year” is no longer in play. Not saying it will be fixed, but there will be one less card in the players’ hand.

The VC kid will no longer be joining the team.
if you believe they arent taking any short cuts. quite the dillemma, they put all these mickey mouse classes, extra summer terms, correspondence credits (now online only courses) “academic assistance centers” to keep players eligible, general studies degrees with barely 120 hours, but then it starts to lead to “early” graduates. ruhroh… yet they cant come out and say the graduate didnt deserve to transfer without sitting out or else the eligibility of most of the other players would tumble under the house of cards that was built
What I got from Hot 107.9 when turning on the Friday morning breakfast jam_

The two-year degree completion rate for graduate transfers (50%) is lower than for graduate student-athletes who remain at their undergraduate school (70%) and is substantially lower in Division I football (31%) and men’s basketball (34%).per ncaa (2018 study)
The weird thing is why was "a draft expert" breaking this news... doubt any nba fans were interested in the news and had major impacts on their mock draft. The guy did not write with a UL target audience, almost as if the purpose of his "news" was to notify the potential transfer market
The weird thing is you posting anything relavent to this thread without making it about some conspiracy theory or a disertation about grad school and the transfer portal. If you can't stay on topic, then feel free to post your normal paranoid thoughts on one of the other RP theme threads....in other words, just go away...BTW, STM (St. Thomas More) is a high school...you don't walk on, you try out...
There was a news article recently claiming Stetson Bennet, with 6 years of college, doesn’t have a degree.
I’m in the minority on this, but I don’t give a freak about STM kids unless UL is their FIRST choice. Yeah we have a bunch that “came home”…most after washing out elsewhere. Yes, there are other kids from other local schools, but the letters STM gets some people all tingly.
This situation is not a big deal since we are talking about a walkon. Guy is unlikely to see much playing time. The best thing walkons bring to programs is providing decent competition to the scholarship guys in practice. Ideally, they help the regulars improve.
The walk on joke regarding STM was asking whether or not the individual paid tuition. Many on here have complained when.other Christian schools had athletes that didn't pay the full.tuition and/or were "recruited", thus I was curious about STM... not sure how only responding to certain posters and analyzing their post contributes to the topic. I'd be curious to know how many credits from UL/USL some on here have and if they would even have been accepted under the more stringent Tier 1 status and before that open admissions ending
