Funderburke will not be eligible and will have to sit out a year. Players can get waivers if they transfer closer to home due to family circumstances usually involving illnesses or something similar. Plan on Quinta sitting out this season.
When you can get a 6-4 205 lb Army All American WR who will have 3 years of eligibility you take him. Period. He has talent - he was slated to be the Hogs #3 WR as a redshirt freshman.
I haven’t read an article that really spells out his tenure at Arkansas though. From what I gather, he enrolled early in Jan 2011. Played spring ball but left school in the summer? Did he return in the fall and redshirt? Did he skip the fall and return in the spring of 2012? He played in this past spring game. Then decided to leave Arkansas for good? Or did he leave for parts of this spring as well? Nothing has been real clear on how his time at Arkansas unfolded. Nevertheless, if he wants to give it a go a Syracuse then I’m all on board. House money, no downside for Syracuse. Don’t people think there’d be discussions between SU and his commitment to playing?
As for how many kids quit football and make it back? Have no idea, we've had three guys quit in recent memory and Beckett Wales made it back. Tom Ferron did not and I think they other kid was from PA.
