Would he be able to play though in 2014-15? I thought I read in your earlier post he would not be able to. That's why i said 2 playing years. If he has to sit next year he would have 1 playing year. If the SEC 2 to play transfer in rule applies to all sports which I think it does, Ware would not be able to transfer to an SEC school if he can only play his RS Senior year.

Unless the NCAA gave him some type of special waiver he wouldn't be able to play in 14-15. I thought they only had to have 2 years of eligibility left pre-transfer. You know much more about how these rules work so I will defer to you.

That can't be true. Antonio Barton at Tennessee just transferred there after playing at Memphis for 3 years

@GoodmanESPN: Two schools that could be in play for Kevin Ware are Auburn and Georgia State, sources told ESPN. Ware once committed to Pearl at Tennessee.

Nice find. It looks like it's a football only rule. Thanks!

I'm trying to find some info on Kevin Ware. Specifically his documented troubles at Louisville. I searched for a bit and only found a speeding ticket, lol. Some UK fans on the rant are saying he has been in all kinds of trouble. I'm not doubting it because I haven't followed him or hate the Cardinals so I wouldn't know. Just trying to read the info. So far they haven't produced any links to back up what they say even though BluegrassBelle says CBS documented it. Still no link.

Anybody have anything on this? Thanks!

Keep in mind, those were UK fans talking about Ware. Not saying they're bullshitting, but it would be like a gump talking about one of our guys.

That was my point and I got into it with one of them because she thought I was trolling, lol. I was just trying to get some info because I knew they would know what to look for. That is why I wanted links from them. And of coarse they deflected and no links came, lol.

ETA: I know he got suspended for a game or 2 midseason the year they won the title and he recently got a speeding ticket. That is all I have personally found.

Per AUR

-AU definitely interested in close friends Ronnie Johnson (Purdue transfer) & Jeremy Hollowell (Indiana transfer)
-Both want to play at same school
-Both have 3 to play 2 and would have to sit in 2014
-AU trying to get both to visit soon
-Pearl recruited Hollowell out of high school and Hollowell likes Pearl
-Hollowell is 6-foot-8, 220 pounds& 41 overall by Rivals out of high school
-Johnson 94 overall by Rivals out of high school

In that piece no. Overall info has confirmed the tweet you relayed 2 days ago, that Ware is interested in AU. No word though if AU is interested yet.

I spoke too soon. I should have read all of Hoke's posts before opening my big mouth.

Per Hoke
-Hard to believe Ware will not transfer to AU
-think in too late on Jackson Davis
-Logwood on hold and may visit staff after his season is over
-Johnson, Hollowell, and Bowers all in play
-Nay on Adams
-Staff working hard to get Atwood to OV
-Status of Thompson, Atewe, Granger, & Griciunas TBD by who the staff can sign and get to transfer in
-Atewe needs to get off the bike and practice.
-Also stay off twitter
-Ware may get a Med Red and have 2 years to play after sitting 2 years
-leans to Purchase being released from NLI unless can't bring in enough players quickly

He basically has a terrible attitude. Doesn't appear to be buying in to the new staff or warming up to the fact that they can actually win in the future. Some of his tweets since the hire have been pathetic.
