JMU Ranked

[R1Letterman]

Imagine if Kennesaw has our own players who transfer there and don't have to sit out because they are fcs, playing against us once the move up. That is why the rule exists. It is a good rule, but it does seem like it is not applied evenly to all sports. Maybe one could argue it "WAS" a good rule. Maybe it should change but not in middle of one team's two year cycle.

If tulane wins two straight NY6 games, I bet their fans would be much more upset about traveling to a team that plays on road vs FCS, then we are about playing on road at FCS

[R1Letterman]

Yeah. Rules are the same wether you’re 6-6 or 12-0

Ironically if you are 6-6 with 2 wins vs fcs that waiver has priority over the jmu waiver. Also if you are 6-6 and played 2 fcs but one is a loss you are still eligible with no waiver needed.

Sure they were.

But come on, man. At this point, if we stand no chance of ruining the chances (we're knocked out of the SBC Champ game), we should want to see one from our conference in a NY6.

Hell, especially instead of Tulane considering in-state pickings of recruits after LSU grabs who they want.

I agree with you. The two year ineligibility rule is stupid. JMU would smash Tulane.

The NCAA selectively enforces what they want anyway.

It’s a crock of poop.

Loophole in their logic.

Is this only hypothetical?? I believe Kennesaw state will be fbs next year and a member of cusa. But players can transfer there and play without sitting out anyway, just like any other school they would transfer too. As long as it’s said players first transfer.

Virginia AG taking on the NCAA, or threatening to.

I like his anti-trust angle, but based on straight up rules, the Dukes knew the deal going in.

You are not wrong.

Then again, the O'Banions knew the rules when the signed their scholarships.

It didn't stop them from sueing for Name Image and Likeness.

The Sunbelt will participate by not letting JM play in the Sunbelt championship, all because they don't want to have a conference Champion who is staying home, denied eligibility.

Doesn't look good on the SBC. So what.

There was no conference championship game at the time but the SBC did the same thing to ULM in 2005 when they didn't even consider ULM on paper and eliminated them from championship consideration all because they didn't want a team with a losing record, to possibly be the SBC bowl representative when they couldn't go.

So they eliminated ULM and what it did was, it made Arkansas State have the tiebreaker over Louisiana in a two-way tie. Whereas with the real three-way tie that existed in 2005 Louisiana would have been the champion.

But by freaking out, the Sun Belt denied ULM, and thus denied Louisiana its rightful regular season championship.

I remember that season we'll. A frat bro of mine was from and played at West Monroe. He said they (ULM) had made those "Live Strong" bracelets with "Win Belt, Win Bowl" embossed on them.

It's part of the reason for the rule. So yes if transfer rules changed then change the rule.or they could also now receive 2nd time transfers without sitting out as well

Well, that didn’t age well at all. Probably went along with their “Louisiana Indians” helmets.

Ah, Funroe…

Yep.

That Louisiana decal with the Indian feathers morphed into it (helmet decal) was damn cool. Now they got some b.s. that looks like dog sh#*
