What requirements?

Any new rumored leaders? Obviously from a different conference...

Probably ends up at a group of five school if it's academic issues. From Birmingham so maybe UAB has a chance? i have no clue.

EDIT - Bama board says the problem is related to online classes not accepted by SEC. Hard to imagine it would be different at other P5 schools.

Ohio St has been all over him, pushing extremely hard. They thought they could flip him before he decommitted.

I think the SEC requires an additional Math credit, and maybe other credits that other conferences do not.

Phil Loadholt was committed to LSU at one point but ended up at Oklahoma due to this rule.

High school requirements mirror NCAA minimums unless the individual institution wants to be more restrictive (like Stanford). JUCO requirements vary from conference to conference and from what I understand the SEC requirements are the strictest.

This is for players that do not qualify out of high school. Requirements are different (lower) for players that qualify out of high school. That's why it's a bigger issue in football than in baseball, since more guys are going JUCO in football out of necessity, but in baseball many go by choice.

Johnson is taking an online algebra course from another school in Kansas.

The SEC doesn't accept JUCO credits from a school unless you graduate from there.
