This darning [ Finebaum ] is gonna make Texas Wesleyan think twice about taking his call in a couple years...
3 high schools in 4 years....gotta think it's a slam dunk he gets to at least 3 colleges in 5 or 6 years.
He's probably gonna be the first SOB to transfer and seek immediate eligibility and 3 years later apply for a 6th year for some other BS...

I have a pretty clear memory of GP telling the press that he, SR and Robinson’s family made the decision on his continuing to play. Anyone else recall this?

A friend of mine who's family knew him well in Denton warned me about him way back then. He was spot on about SR.

I gave SR the benefit of a doubt and my well wishes when he transferred, despite all the signs. Sometimes things just do not work out. Now? I don't care about him one way or the other

Shawn wants the opportunity to play in four games and still be able to redshirt.
He played in the Mizzou Spring Game and perhaps has bounced back fully from his injury. With all of these other players transferring to other teams and getting a waiver, he wants his too.
Why should TCU's new QB transfer from Ohio State be able to seek a waiver but Robinson shouldn't be allowed to?
It's just too bad that Shawn and his family are apparently ready to bend and twist the truth about why he left the Horned Frogs. But he and his family really do not care about TCU anymore and do not see it as a big deal, everyone else is getting away with it.

It says the two sides settled.

Robinson has something significant to gain by making that claim, I don't know any details and our society has hit such a whiny/wimpy stage, so my inclination is to take that with a grain of salt.
Listenbee didn't have anything to gain that I'm aware of.
I will say this - wouldn't it be a shame if that was used against Patterson in recruiting.God knows he would NEVER negatively recruit.....

Is pointing out that UT’s coach is the world’s largest Brilesbag really negative recruiting if it’s true?

Him saying that about Georgia, reminds me of what I used to tell my ex when she would point out my many, many flaws to me in dismay: "What you say may be true but in my defense, you had reason to know all that [ Finebaum ] prior to committing."

Cool story. But seriously, why did you give Johnny a zero? Regionals are next week.

If I'm being honest neither should get a waiver. That said, if Martel got one then Baldwin should easily get one since they're using the exact same reasoning related to the exact same head coach on the exact same team. IMO it's extremely weak reasoning, but the NCAA doesn't appear to care. Coaches get fired and leave for other positions all the time. Granting immediate eligibility waivers b/c coaches leave opens up the door to players following coaches to their new programs en masse. I think this precedent by the NCAA is an ugly slippery slope and we've only hit the tip of the iceberg on how ridiculous this transfer fiasco is about to get.
The SR rationale is different, though. I totally understand him wanting to gain immediate eligibility, but lying as a means to that end is a very big distinction between SR and Baldwin. Since he can't say his coach left or the campus is racist (also very specious IMO) he's got to manufacture an excuse good enough that the NCAA will buy it. Since it involves character assassination of an active NCAA head coach I'd hope the NCAA would investigate this one more dutifully than the others they've granted. I don't have high hopes because, well... NCAA, but if they grant this waiver for SR the NCAA will tacitly indict CGP as a player abuser. Before they grant such a waiver and indirectly make such a statement about the 2nd longest tenured head coach in FBS football they damn well better know for sure that SR was mistreated.
I think that's the reason people here are rightly opposed to SR getting his waiver while they'd support Baldwin's waiver.
