Message: [QUOTE="Bambrewer, post: 1065095, member: 4728"] If a kid is a good player and has grades close to the minimum for the sliding scale... Say his GPA is a 1.9 but his sat or act was above the minimum requirement which I believe is 1000 sat or 86 act. Or if he has the GPA and misses the sat or act. Or even if all three are close. If a college is interested in signing the kid they can submit for a waiver to the ncaa. The ncaa looks into the kids story... Why it's low if he can succeed in college etc. the ncaa can then issue a waiver for the kid to get the scholarship and join I believe as a red shirt ( though that wasn't exactly clear in my conversation with the ncaa and I haven't spoken to a school that excepts waivers) when he gets to school he can then make eligibility and play out his years [/QUOTE]
