Probably in anticipation of the recent tightening of the transfer restrictions enacted by the SEC.
Last year, the SEC passed a Georgia-sponsored rule to prohibit its schools from accepting transfer students who at any point of their enrollment in college had been convicted or pled guilty or no contest to serious misconduct, defined as sexual assault, domestic violence, or “other forms” of sexual violence. This week the rule was expected to include the following: Dating violence, stalking, or “conduct of a nature that creates serious concerns about the safety of others.” SEC commissioner Greg Sankey was asked about that vague wording. “It’s a vague world. It’s a recognition that you can’t define everything within one page,” Sankey said. Asked if there was a dialogue this week about expanding the legislation to include high school players, Sankey said: “We’ll continue to talk.”

Soooo serious misconduct doesn't include something like battery? Some mammoth human being can beat the ever-loving frick out of some theater kid and the SEC would have no comment?
