FC: Vert Hill at Pegula!!!

[Corabi94]

Sorry, but your theory doesn't pass muster. Any agreement that may have been signed was obviously for the current academic term at Penn State... and is now obviously void, given that Hill remains a high school student rather than a Penn State student.

He's still a prospective student-athlete being recruited openly by numerous schools. You think that Penn State gets to play by entirely separate rules of engagement because of a now-voided paper agreement from months ago? No.[/QUOTE

Do you work for the NCAA compliance office? If not, shut up. You are making shit up.

Keep grasping at straws. You're amusing.

Yes. Same reason USC was announcing guys a month+ early. Penn State is still in the add-drop period, so conceivably Hill could still enroll until Thursday at 8 am.

EDIT: there is also a late registration period, so any agreement signed for this semester would be valid through the end of late registration.

 

[BobPSU92]

Official word....no violation....we are now open to accepting apologies. Crickets

Exactly. What the um athletic supporters and other trolls should say: "My apologies. I should have known better given Penn State's tradition of Success With Honor."

 

[LaJolla Lion]

This was looked into ahead of time. Look for Jimmy to copy this next.

 

[psugrad85]

Lavert Hill verbally committed and planned on enrolling early. There are quite a few articles out there regarding financial aid agreements. Here is text taken from one of those articles:

"So, in December, the NCAA, in an attempt to close this loophole before it became a giant mess, ruled that only the program that first signs a prospect to a financial aid agreement is allowed to publicize the signing and text or call at free will."

 

[Blueblood4eva]

Michigan trolls get spanked again, as well as a few PSU nitpicking phonies.

Of course it is. Can't believe that Franklin would be so blatant about doing this.

Is sleeping in the same bed as a recruit a violation? or is it just love?

 

[wrm125]

Believe he was announced by name, though not sure about that... but his name and picture was certainly posted on the video scoreboard, so it wasn't just the fans chanting his name. The school introduced him publicly.

How can Franklin possibly be this sloppy?

I'm trying to think of a term for the opposite of sloppy...

 

[NapaNit]

Is sleeping in the same bed as a recruit a violation? or is it just love?

Can it not be both?

 

[Art]

Worst case it's a minor violation and the penalty is curtailment of recruiting activities next round e.g. X number of coaches can't be on the road for Y days each. Figure that X * Y is less than 10.

 

[canuckhal]

Nice job 71! Trolls, however, don't do facts or logic. They wouldn't be trolls if they did.

I can't believe you are this big of a moron! Signed financial aid papers

 

[Coultr77]

You can obsess over the messenger all you'd like--but at the end of the day, the NCAA Rulebook is the NCAA Rulebook.

Except you didn't read it obviously haha moron

Sorry, had to dumb it down for our Michigan visitors. Last 2-3 days have demonstrated that they have difficulty with anything beyond rudimentary. Still waiting to read what a "tender" is.

[bmw199]

Although Damar Hamlin recently posted and deleted personalized material on his Columbus hotel room bed on Twitter. He has since cropped the photo to a selfie of himself and the posters/pictures and made it his default.

Go crawl back into your hole.

 

[Ten Thousan Marbles]

I see some scared skunkbears here. Must be because it looks like the kid was having a great time.

 

[DaytonBuck]

Would it be an issue if he doesn't choose PSU? LSU got into some trouble a few years ago when some EE candidates that signed the paperwork, decided to go elsewhere.

Just asking, I honestly have no clue.

 

[MarkPSU]

I can't believe a bunch of grown men are getting their shorts in a bunch over nothing. My guess is a few of them are emailing the NCAA as I type. Oh my God! PSU mentioned the name of a recruit we are after. The horror. Bet if Harbaugh did it they would be praising him

 

[LuvDaLions]

Penn St cleared it with the NCAA before they did it. No issue what so ever. You can't possibly think PSU would be that dumb do you?

 

[chizco]

Obviously you are an uninformed moron

Speaking of uninformed morons, has Desmond "Mushmouf" Howard weighed in on this yet.

 

[Bobpsu]

Where did all these single digit message posters come from.....jagoffs

 

[PaoliLion]

I'm not clear on why we continue to follow any of the NCAA rules. They didn't follow their own rules when it came to our penalities. While I absolutely don't want our graduation rate to drop and to over sign recruits, I don't care if we turn into the biggest rule breaker in the NCAA.

 

[auxgym]

Is it an NCAA violation if Harbaugh tells Quinn he always sleeps naked?

 

[Blueblood4eva]

Poor Wolverines. Rashan Gary just found out that Pitt has more National Championships since 1948 than mighty Michigan. The carpooling to Jersey doesn't look so good anymore. He just got an invite from Narduzzi, who will undoubtedly recommend MSU.

Nothing in that rule about what happened tonight, so not sure why you quoted it.

 

[cvilleelkscoach]

I was there tonight. Pretty cool, he walked onto the ice after they announced his name and had his picture on the video board. When we left Pagula, the stadium was lit and there his picture was again on the south end zone score board and the lights were on in the presidents suite in the stadium. Let's hope he had a good visit. Hockey beat Wisconsin 4-1. McAdam was great in goal. 40 shots by Bucky, one goal.

 

[ChiTownLion]

lol at the skunkbears again.

Good for CJF.

 

[schoolie]

It is and sounds like your coach is a bit desperate with all the crap going on with his staff to allow a secondary violation. Of course he can just adopt the Ahia State approach and just report them and apologize.

Please go away and take your other Michigan friends with you. I hear there's some good water waiting for you in Flint. Have a gallon or two.

When RichRod was arranging extra practice time a few years back, he should have had you fans sit in extra NCAA compliance seminars so you might learn some things. Alas, it looks like he didn't and you don't know dick
