Demond is supposed to be meeting with Fisch and UW admin tonight about unenrolling


Where is this info coming from ?
Pete Golding disagrees with him.

So F off Jimbo.

He’s not going to make a move until that 2 day deadline passes.

Currently it’s a brewing NIL and contractual issue between Demond and UW that involves a lot of unknowns and gray areas.

As soon as Washington refuses to abide by the portal by-laws, then it becomes a clear NCAA violation by Washington. The by-law is clear a school can not refuse to enter a player in the portal for any reason, and specifically includes any NIL, monetary, or contractual issues as an example schools have used in the past that are now violations.


Yep.
quote:

Im assuming without pressure, the NCAA would declare any player who attempted to transfer outside of the portal ineligible.


Transfer rules still apply. I believe the rules outline this scenario. If Demond request to be added to transfer portal, it really doesn't matter if Washington adds him like they are supposed to or not when it comes to his eligibility.

They can not stop him from transferring and have no rule that would make him ineligible just by withdrawing and enrolling elsewhere. As long as he is academically eligible and meets the other rules that all athletes face for eligibility, he is fine.

What are you trying to say here?


I am saying Demond can do exactly what the Wisconsin player did as the circumstances are nearly identical.

1) He signed an NIL deal
2) He requested a transfer and Wisconsin failed to allow it (a violation of NCAA bylaws)
3) He withdrew from Wisconsin and enrolled at Miami
4) He starts for Miami now

Demond's facts are basically the same.

The NCAA never attempted (to my knowledge) to block the Wisconsin player's eligibility. And, I think the reason is that the player requested to be in the transfer portal and was following the rules of the NCAA.

Give me Sam Levitt this kid seems like a head case.


You think Sam doesn't bring baggage when he just hung around for 2 days and didn't commit, along with not attending the ASU team banquet, and also reports his family is tough to deal with?
quote:

The suggestion in the OP is that the player just bypass the transfer portal.

The player hypothetically would then sue the NCAA for eligibility.


That precent has passed with the player from Wisconsin that is now at Miami playing this year. They did nothing to him when he just withdrew from Wisconsin and enrolled at Miami when Wisconsin refused to put him in the portal.
quote:

He's going to have to call the bluff of Washington and the NCAA


Why would he be calling the bluff of the NCAA?
Washington has 2 business days to enter his name into the portal once notified in writing by Demond according to NCAA Bylaws.

Once that window passes, if they have not followed those rules, you have to assume he will do just that and proceed how he wants while attorneys take care of the rest.

They can not stop him from doing it.

Their endgame here seems to be delaying his release so he can't enroll at LSU or wherever else for the spring semester.


They will commit a violation to make a point?

And he will just enroll in LSU anyway. There is no way to stop him from doing it.
Let's let our friend CHATGPT opine on if Washington can refuse to put his name in the portal.

quote:

NCAA Rule (Division I – most relevant)
?? Mandatory Entry

Once a student-athlete submits written notification of their intent to transfer to the school’s compliance office:

The institution must enter the athlete into the NCAA Transfer Portal

Deadline: within 2 business days

The school has no discretion to deny, delay, or block the request.

This is an NCAA bylaw requirement[/b], not a conference or school policy.

What a School Cannot Do

A school [b]may not:


Deny the request because the coach disagrees

Delay entry to pressure the athlete

Require a meeting with a coach as a condition

Refuse due to roster needs, depth chart concerns, or timing

Condition portal entry on repayment of aid, equipment, or NIL issues

Any of the above would be a bylaw violation.

Bad play on their part here.

Sue for breach of contract, sure.

But fail to follow the rules and not place him in the transfer portal? Idiotic.

Let's get as much chaos as possible to force action so that cooler and smarter heads sort all of this out and give us back some semblance of college athletics.
quote:

Going to be interesting to see if he will be able to transfer or be forced to play at Washington this year.


:rotflmao:

There is no legal way they can force him to play at Washington. None.

They might get some money for damages, but this is it.
Joe Burrow could not see the field at Ohio State.

Joe Burrow was mediocre year 1 at LSU with an outdated system.

Joe Burrow was the GOAT year 2 at LSU with better coaching and system.

Look at a players skill set and if Lane thinks he can make him great, let Lane cook.

How in the hell do you let a guy visit for 3 days and let him leave unsigned???


You kick his arse to the curb and say next!

Can’t make a guy sign but you can take care of business and move on.

Yes. He’s very good and zero injury at present.

Also, Leavitt has been here 2 days. This is transfer portal time and teams need to act quickly. You are either in or out.

Maybe he said I’m out, but you can’t wait around when we need a qb as bad as we do,
I 2nd that motion.

Absolutely horrible place to take a damn 20 year old recruit.
