Now come on...you looked like a jack@ss before that.  LOL!!!!! ;D  Just kidding

I wish I could disagree with that statement.

Re: Holdren transferring to Illinois

Has anybody heard anything about whether Holdren is going to make the Illinois team?

Re: Holdren transferring to Illinois

Who cares? He had a Great opportunity here. He made his choice. My sources tell me he was not a team player.

Re: Holdren transferring to Illinois

He won't get PT for a while since he is going on as a walk on. A shame he had to go but apparently it was an opportunity he couldn't let go.

Re: Holdren transferring to Illinois

If I am not mistaken, by NCAA rule he will have to sit out this season.


Go State!

Re: Holdren transferring to Illinois

actually he wont have to but he will be a junior on the team. at least that what i understood him as saying.

Re: Holdren transferring to Illinois

He will have to set out this year.  When he is eligible to play again in '07-'08 he will be a Jr. with 2 years of eligibility left.

Frosh season at SDSU (1 year gone)
Soph season at SDSU (med. red shirt so this last season doesn't count)
Soph season at Ill. (has to sit out due to D-I transfer rules, 2nd year gone)
Jr. season at Ill. (3rd year gone)
Sr. season at Ill. (4th year gone eligibility used up)

5 years to play 4 season of eligibility.


Go State!

Re: Holdren transferring to Illinois

Re: Holdren transferring to Illinois

that's news to me

Re: Holdren transferring to Illinois

I still think he has to sit out this next year. If he didn't take a Medical Red Shirt then he in fact played for SDSU last season (in the NCAA eyes) and so he would have to count the year would be a Jr. and still would need to sit out, just like Paige Paulson had to (last year) when he transfered from Northern Ill. to UW-Milwaukee. No matter how you slice it I think he will be sitting this season.

Go State!

Re: Holdren transferring to Illinois

Anyone know if a medical redshirt is treated differently?

Re: Holdren transferring to Illinois

Ray Taken Alive played a few games at Augie, but got a medical redshirt for an injury..he than transferred to U-Mary and redshirt that year...he will be a freshman this fall...so medical redshirts dont count as a regular redshirt I take it? Unless D2 is different...but I'm guessing it's not that much different

Correct me if I am wrong, as I don't keep up with D-II much anymore, but U of Mary was a NAIA school when Ray Taken Alive transferred so NCAA rules would not apply in his case.  Now since his transfer, the U of Mary has started the process of becoming a NCAA D-II school, but I have no idea how that affects his eligibility or how/if his example relates/compares to a kid transferring from one NCAA D-I school to another NCAA D-I school.  Way too many variables for my understanding of NCAA rules and regulations.   :-X
