Like I said, I don't know the particulars of this issue - IF Auburn takes him. But he can't come directly from UGA to AU, can he, and play the first year? If he goes to jr college and keeps his nose clean, then he would not have to walk on at AU if we still want him. I don't think we would take a chance on immediately giving him a scholarship with his current situation. Why shouldn't he have to work to prove himself before he gets another free ride?

You are correct. I believe he would have to sit out a year, per NCAA rules....NOT because Auburn is forcing them to walk on.

Hey. Like I said. Kudos for your record in turning players around. It has paid off for both.

My point is...you guys are claiming he would have to walk on. He would not, and as far as I know, no player has ever walked on at Auburn once they were kicked off another team. (Might have...I am just unaware of it) Y'all make it sound as if you are making a player prove himself. You are not. the NCAA rules make them sit out a year.....and they certainly are NOT walking on. Do you think Cam, Marshall or Trey Matthews would go to Auburn and play football if they did not have a scholarship? certainly not. They would go to another school.
