No QB. Bad ruling by the NC2A. But that doesn't surprise me. Smell like 5-7 for the Rebs.

Sorry for the secret code. I was referring to Ole Miss coach Houston Nutt. The NCAA declared Oregon xfer and would be starting QB Jeremiah Massoli ineligible.

That SUCKS! The NCAA did everything but put it in writing that he WOULD be eligible!

And now they crawfish!

I agree FGM. The NC2A are a bunch of boot licking idiots.

Doesn't bother me. If he hadn't been breaking the law, maybe he'd still be in Oregon.

He can suckit. Loser.

Oregon did the right thing. So did the NCAA, IMO.

He's in college, on scholarship, with the potential for making millions in the NFL and he resorts to burglary and can't control himself from doing drugs?

I have zero sympathy for him.

How many of us have managed to go our whole lives without ever being arrested or taken to jail. How EVER did we do it?

Oh, no... I got it. But since it was meant for FGM, I left it to him.

MACS, please explain how the NCAA did the right thing here? In their by laws they lay out exactly what a student athlete needs to do to regain eligibility in cases like this. He did everything he needed to do. They tell him he's eligible, then they rescind their decision. The problem I have with the NC2A is that there is no consistency to how they apply their rules.

As for Masoli, all indications are that he's a trouble maker, so good riddance to him. I just have a problem with the NC2A's ruling.

#12 I with you on this. He/We did exactly what he was told and they backed out! We have appealed, but they seldom overturn them.

As far as Masoli the person.....certainly could be trouble. Nutt was smart enough to make him sign a Zero Tolerence statement. If he so much as sneezed wrong he's out.

He is however a very talented college QB and we are back to only TWO scholarship QB's.

^ My Dawgs are in no better shape. We will start a redshirt frosh that has never taken a snap, and his 2 backups are both true freshmen. Might get ugly.

to give any credit to masoli, i don't think he's as bad as everyone makes him out to be. He got the shaft in the robbery case by pleading guilty because the d.a. scared him with 2-4 years and the fact that they win high percentage of their cases if he plead not guilty and was found guilty. After reading a lot of stuff, seams like he was truly in the wrong place at the wrong time and didn't steal anything, but is still a dumbass for lying to the cops in the first place that he wasn't at the frat house. Marijuana bust was his own fault.

I do like the way Gundy handles that program. I could definitely see them winning a Big XII title someday.
