Unfortunately this seems to be a yearly occurrence. Assistants leave for promotions elsewhere in the conference, and guys lower on the depth chart want to follow with a grad transfer.
Ultimately I am happy the kid has his degree and it is his prerogative to take his talent to play eleshere. But a part of me is irritated to see it somewhere in the SEC. Especially a kid as talented as Kennedy. If injuries don't derail his career, he may be starting this fall for Alabama.
Alabama's hands may be tied in the end. Even with this initial block, public pressure may win out like it did with Mo Smith. And I still believe that fiasco cost Alabama an additional DB with Sheffield transferring out too (they were both from the Houston metro).

Yep, have a hard and fast NCAA rule either way. It shouldn't be a dramatic thing every year. Either a graduate can play anywhere or he can only play for a team not on your upcoming schedule.
But thinking of Mo Smith (and especially his momma) watching Alabama celebrate makes that one worth it.
