The Polish Rifle Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 18 minutes ago, Husker Hoops Penitent said: Regarding the N.C.A.A., there is one comfort which can be taken: the certainty and ease of finding gainful employment should a person fall on hard times. For qualifications one needs only to be alive. Being stupid and sanctimonious ensures a fast ascent.... I still don’t get why they don’t have a hard deadline for receiving waivers and granting waivers - probably too beneficial to the student athlete for the NCAAs liking.

jayschool Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 If he's ineligible this semester, he'll miss 11 games: Four season-opening home games (probably not too big of a problem) Three in the Cayman Islands (may make a difference in overall record, but probably only in the opening game against WSU — if we go to the loser's bracket without him, we could still win a couple) Two road games against power-conference foes Georgia Tech and North Omaha (big problem) Two conference games at Indiana and home against Purdue (reduces our chances at an upset) His first eligibility would be at home against North Dakota on Dec. 21, the day after final exams end. He would be eligible for 20 regular-season games and all post-season games. Right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norm Peterson Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 @jayschool I believe you would be correct, but under the circumstances, he should get a waiver. I mean, he had two coaches leave on him. That ain't right. He's sat long enough. mwm89 and thrasher31 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Handy Johnson Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 I’ll never understand why this process isn’t more expediated. You would think it’s fairly cut & dried especially in this case. I can’t believe there’s a lot of debate back & forth about the merits of each waiver, or that they’re just backlogged to such a degree...

HuskerDaysFan Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 If I were the NCAA I would say "NO". My reason would be, Fred Hoiberg asked players to leave. When a coach does that then the team doesn't need players!! BirdsOnTheBat, Norm Peterson, Red Rum and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every Division 1 head coach has “asked players to leave.” Some call it a mutual decision, some are a little more honest. But Hoiberg and Nebraska have nothing to do with the NCAA’s decision. It’s all based on Shamiel’s personal situation at his previous school(s). Red Don 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuroranHusker Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 Shamiel Stevenson has been put in a tough spot.... TWICE. It's not his fault that his 2 prior coaches left almost immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he going to miss the first game of every season he’s here? I’d think there’s only one season opening game follows by 3 other games. Is there a game between the first 4 and second 3 that he can play? Just confused on what you mean by he is going to miss “Four season-opening home games” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I heard either Bas or Washut on the radio said that waivers usually drop Friday, thinking we won't hear a peep until then. Really sucks for Shamiel - yet another situation where the biggest victim is the student athlete. He has two coaches leave their school with out consequence but here he is finally on a team with a coach he committed to - and he can't play. thrasher31 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand they were trying to ensure everything was done right so I can't fault them for that. Someone remind me. We're trying to turn last year into a redshirt year correct? So he'd be a redshirt sophomore and Essentially gaining back a year of eligibility. Correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
