Dom came from a rough situation. I don't think Frank Martin is a good fit and I feel Tyndall is two-faced. I rather he go to Georgetown or back out to Texas.
If he doesn't want to stay here, or return here, does it really matter where he goes? I still have a hunch he doesn't go the UT/SC route, but just guessing.
I am pretty sure I have no say in this for Dom. Might want to chill out with the response.
Say what? Did I miss the memo where you get to tell me what to do? Bite me, kid.
Not only that, but you completely missed the tone and point of my post. Wasn't meant to be snarky. Just matter of fact. Maybe next time you can ask for clarification before you make some dumbazz incorrect conclusion.
My bad on the misunderstanding. It sounded like a snark towards my post. I don't hold any ill feelings towards Dom. Pretty sure I wasn't telling you what to do.

I still don't understand why he left...
Was he asked to leave, or did he want to leave.

It's all good. I was technically correct, but too hard on you. I just don't respond well to pushback from peeps who do it without even understanding what I meant. Think about the poster. Am I normally snarky, lol?
Anyway, apology accepted. I apologize for overreacting.

Sounds like the usual suspects owe you an apology now that "Grant" has mentioned this.

You can change your thread title to confirmed rumor. At least I think you can still edit your original post and thread title.

I didn't really see where you got blasted that much other than having the thread title changed. Once he was released by us he becomes recruitable which means that anyone can get in his ear. He will still have to sit out a year.

Sitting out a year probably not good for Dom. He will gain 50 lbs, get in trouble or both. I wish him the best--hope it works out for him.

Not if the NCAA decides that he was "run off" by the coach. Called the "Run Off Waiver."

RE: Big Dom to UT [unconfirmed rumor, unnamed 'source']
NCAA's "Run Off Waiver" --- see this >>>
http://www.athleticscholarships.net/2014...waiver.htm
In September 2012, the NCAA Division I Subcommittee for Legislative Relief adopted guidelines for waivers based on an assertion that the student-athlete was “run off” by their previous institution. The NCAA staff is directed to grant relief in cases where an athlete is ineligible for the one-time transfer exception due to playing a sport which does not have the exception or because it is their second (or more) transfer between four-year schools. The institution filing the waiver on behalf of the student-athlete has to include the following documentation:
1. Documentation demonstrating that the student-athlete would not have had the opportunity to return to the previous institution’s team for reasons outside the control of the student-athlete.
2. A written statement from the applicant institution that the student-athlete is in good academic standing and meets all progress-toward-degree requirements at applicant institution.
3. A written statement from the student-athlete’s previous institution indicating that the previous institution supports the request.
Kelly Brooks, a director of academic and membership affairs with the NCAA who oversees the legislative relief staff gave some background on these waivers. This waiver is designed for athletes who have not been kicked off the team for academic or disciplinary reasons. That would be within the control of the student-athlete. Athletic performance is not considered within the athlete’s control, whether the team is oversigned, the athlete was “recruited over”, or the coach misevaluated the athlete and they do not meet the standards of the program...

AFAIK that waiver has only been attempted once with Dorial Green-Beckman who was dismissed from Missouri's football team and Oklahoma is trying to use that to get him eligible. The case is still pending. Dom wasn't dismissed from the program so I doubt if there is any chance that will succeed if tried.
