Will be interesting to see if we try to bring him back.

He would be 3rd or 4th string.

He should go to a program where he can play.

Kind of reminds me of when Rocket Ismail played for Notre Dame

Unless someone gets injured, then he's an experienced veteran getting PT.

Don't think he is allowed to transfer unless he entered the portal when it was open.

Can never have too many capable veterans on the roster.

from what I’ve heard, ND is playing it cautiously. He is not with the team until the determination

is final. If the ruling is reversed and his playing ND could have to vacate all wins and monies in games he’s played.

Rule they aren’t eligible in the future and make them ineligible retroactively contrary to this ruling? I can see if it’s overturned in the future they become automatically ineligible

If that’s the case, then no ruling can be acted on until the appeal process is complete regardless of what is decided by earlier decisions?


That’s like something was legal when I did it but in the future a law was passed and make it illegal, so I get retroactively charged for something that was legal at the time I did it.

Think CMF and the admin, which has clearly opened the door to bringing in players that weren't

granted entry before, should greenlight JT's playing and, if he eventually ruled ineligible after games are played, tell the NCAA to **** themselves. Unlike years past where they took whatever punishment the NCAA deemed appropriate and said "thank you".

UNC still has to be laughing their collective a**es off at getting a pass on 20+ years of clear academic fraud and ND getting 20+ wins vacated for catching kids cheating and suspending them immediately.

Very productive and underrated player.
