Well that's a first for me, I hadn't see a grad transfer flip his commitment before.
We had one last year...Gabe Sherrod...Well that's a first for me, I hadn't see a grad transfer flip his commitment before.

True. He looked like he was going to flip the whole time so I figured it was inevitable.Not exactly. I know that he was committed here and eventually ended up at Mich St. but it wasn't like he made the decision to flip. He committed to them after the Syracuse staff pulled his offer.
Now he may very well have ended up flipping but the staff didn't give him that opportunity.
That was over a 3 year period.Ryan BartowVerified account @RyanBartow May 22
Scoop: #AlcornState RB Arron Baker receives his release. Grad transfer that will draw D. 1 interest. 1,453 rushing yards & 23 career TDs
Ok, I'll bite. As a graduate of ND, what academic criteria could he possibly not meet to play SEC football?
"Academic Progress Rate is the NCAA’s measurement of choice to evaluate how well a team’s players are doing (and improving) in the classroom. One way for a grad transfer to not earn all possible APR points is to not finish a grad degree at his new school. The SEC also mandates a grad transfer take at least nine credit hours during his first full-time semester. These requirements are where Florida has found trouble.Ok, I'll bite.

Thanks. Next time I promise I'll hit the "read more" button. Really does seem off that he will be the one punished."Academic Progress Rate is the NCAA’s measurement of choice to evaluate how well a team’s players are doing (and improving) in the classroom.

For the 2015 season, Florida added grad transfers Mason Halter and Anthony Harrell. The two didn’t meet the academic benchmarks to stay eligible for the whole season. They also fell short of the SEC’s rules for grad transfers, and Florida had to admit as much to the conference in a written report. That set off a three-year penalty, so under current conditions, UF can’t have football grad transfers again until at least 2018."
You are forgiven.Thanks. Next time I promise I'll hit the "read more" button. Really does seem off that he will be the one punished.
Speaking of Gabe, here are his stats for MSU last season:We had one last year...Gabe Sherrod...
