Out of curiosity, how does that mesh with the whole "can't give walk-on's a scholarship before 2 years or they have to be ICs" rule?

That was an issue for Stetson Bennett, and it was also the reason for delaying putting Hot Rod on scholarship.

Something seems in conflict there unless I'm misunderstanding.


I'm guessing these guys aren't actually considered walk ons, but some other classification.

I'm really not sure.

NCAA Signing/Counter Limits

The Voluntary Withdrawal (15.5.6.4.1) rule is an Exception rule that allows walkons to receive replacement scholarships for players who voluntarily withdraw from the football team and the university. The rule states that a walkon can receive the replacement scholarship for any term following the inital fall term that the withdrawal preceded without having been a walkon for 1 year. The loophole is built into the rule. A few Bama recruits have utilized that loophole.
