What are the chances Bradley get his waiver granted this week??

[billiken_roy]

probably depends what program is using a player.   if for example it id duke or kansas or one of the other blue bloods, no eligibility burned.   they may even extend them an additional full year.  

if it is the billikens or another mid major or lower, the player in question's college career would be over for trying to pull a fast one on the committee regardless on how many years they had prior to the restraining order.

IF something like that were to happen, that seems like it would surely lead to another round of lawsuits.

Don't worry, Roy. Eligibility limitations & any academic requirements will be on the chopping block too.

I’m guessing no because this is really non-news otherwise. No one would burn eligibility for two midseason games. That’s at least how I’m looking at it

His involvement was about as meaningful as any of us on this board. Hey Kurtis, this is Chris May from Saint Louis University, let me know when you would like to hear my thoughts on the NIL legislation. Oh, you are at a celebratory press conference at the University of Missouri with those you worked on the legislation with and it has passed? Good deal, well, glad I could help get that across the finish line.

Former Mizzou offensive lineman and current state rep, Kurtis Gregory, went to Eli Drinkwitz when NIL was passed and basically said, let me know what you need from the state to give us the best chance to succeed, I am tired of Mizzou playing from behind. And I believe this is the second time they have gotten legislation passed in the state. To pretend May had anything to do with the legislation is just not true. Sure, have Stu add his name to the article in the Post Dispatch, but that is meaningless. And then Troy goes on the radio and basically says as much, hilarious. Dog and pony show.

It wasn't Stu who wrote the article or added it to the article.  That article was all Dave Matter, the Tigers' beat writer.  Now I don't think May did much or anything, but the Mizzou people obviously thought it was useful to attach his name to the effort.

He got it. Article here: https://www.wralsportsfan.com/college-athletes-waiting-for-ncaa-transfer-waiver-can-play-now-federal-judge-rules/21194298/

Upon further review this is a 14 day temporary restraining order so it may not be permanent. Things getting very interesting.

[HoosierPal]

Not everyone is happy in Hoopsville. 

[billikenbill]

So anyone playing in this 14-day period will NOT lose a year of eligibility if the TRO is rescinded.

I certainly hope that unnamed AD was not referring to our beloved Coach Ford as one of the a$$holes.

[SLU_Nick]

So Brad starts on Saturday and Ford saves his job?

Sounds like sour grapes of coaches/ADs not able to see the writing on the wall. I'm just a MBM and I've been telling y'all this would not withstand judicial scrutiny.

Brad eventually moves into the starting lineup, Parker returns, Bills win A-10 Tourney, Ford saves his job, and 05 cries himself to sleep.

If SLU goes dancing the crying will be happy tears. I’ve said I’d rather see Ford be the guy. I don’t think he is. The show’s potential listener base is much greater if we win than if we stink.

It seems like players will not lose a year of eligibility if they play during this window:

You gotta play him. This could be pretty big for the season

If you’ve ever called for Ford to be fired that apparently = you want SLU to lose.   That’s how far this board has devolved into factions.

With that said, this team needs a whole lot more than a healthy Parker and eligible Ezewiro to have a snowball’s chance in hell at doing anything this season.

so you dont think the billikens will win the national championship this season?

[thunderdan]

Looks like Bradley is able to play, for the next 2 weeks, given the federal (temporary) restraining order that has been issued against the NCAA.  Official hearing is set for December 27th.  Curious to see what will happen. 

[wgstl]

Fingers crosses the hearing keeps getting delayed 

[wgstl]

I still want Bruce to keep increasing PT.  Brad should be used as a fun backup, regardless if he's better than Bruce or not.

I don't know how much Brad will help, but he'll certainly give us more defensive presence at the Bigs.

Edit: If Brad remains eligible, Sincere comes back soon, and the Gibby/LHJ nagging injuries heal, then I think an A10 tournament run is at least possible.

Plus Ford has shown he can rally his team and win big games.

Just information:

There were 35 players on Jeff Goodman's 2x list (waiting to receive a waiver or already denied).  I checked on two games last night.  UNLV played their 2X, McNeese State did not. 

Those two situations came up through X accounts.
