Message: [QUOTE="JoeSU, post: 321268, member: 309"] I don't know about Sophs, but for Jrs and Srs who care about obtaining their degree, when students in general transfer late in their academic career, very often course credits from another school can't be applied towards the degree requirements at their new institution, so they end up having to matriculate an additional semester or two. This isn't a big deal for Fr. and Sophs. From a football perspective, a Jr or Sr. might miss out on a bowl game or two, and the better players have the option of declaring early for the draft. But for players just getting started in their collegiate careers, it has to be difficult to accept never being able to contend for a national or B1G championship, and never having the opportunity to play in (another) bowl game. I also wonder how the players will be treated by opposing fans when they play on the road. [/QUOTE]
