Well, since once again ddict requires further explanation, please allow me.
1) Iowa is a hardship case, if there ever was one. If they allow Jake Kelley to move schools to help Indiana State, then it should be perfectly allowable to get a player in here, from a JC, at the half way point.
2) Kaylon Williams is every bit the player that the individual who has already been busted for alcohol twice in a year, at Iowa. Ridiculous
3) Please don't make me rip off the other 98 reasons why it should be done. NOW
You could "rip" off 98 reasons, or 98,000 reason, it is clear that he would have to sit a year, period. You might want to check out the rules: Here are some excerpts.
If you are now in a four-year school and want to transfer to another four-year school, we sometimes refer to you as a 4-4 transfer. Generally, these rules apply to you.
If you transfer from a four-year school to another four-year school, generally you are not eligible to play at the new four-year school until you spend an academic year in residence at that school.
But, do not give up yet. Read this section to see if an exception can apply to you to allow you to play right away.
Rules have exceptions:
Common exceptions if you are in a four-year school
Exceptions are applied by the new school (sometimes called the certifying school). The certifying school determines whether you are eligible to play right away without spending an academic year in residence.
The certifying school has the authority to grant exceptions, based on the conditions that we explain here:
Exceptions for Divisions I and II
If this is your first transfer ...
If you have never transferred before from a four-year school, you might be able to use the one-time transfer exception to play right away at a Division I or II school.
To use this exception, you must:
1. Be playing a sport other than baseball in Division I, basketball in Division I, men's ice hockey in Division I or football in Division I. Note: In football you may be eligible to use this exception if:
a. You transfer from a Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly Division I-A) school to a Football Championship Subdivision (formerly Division I-AA) school and have at least two seasons of competition remaining; or
b. You transfer from a Football Championship Subdivision (formerly I-AA) school that offers athletics scholarships to a Football Championship Subdivision (formerly Division I-AA) that does not offer athletics scholarships.
Important Note: If you do not qualify for this exception due to any of the conditions in Subsection 1 above, you may be able to use the exception if you were not recruited by your first four-year school AND have never received an athletics scholarship.
2. Be in good academic standing and making progress toward your degree;
3. Have been considered eligible if you had stayed in your first school; and
4. Have a written release agreement from your first school saying that it does not object to your receiving an exception to the transfer residence requirement.
You can use an exception during your first year of collegiate enrollment ONLY if you are a qualifier.
[Note: if you are a qualifier, have signed a National Letter of Intent, and transfer during the first year after you enrolled full time, you may have to sit out for a period of time at the certifying school, even if you meet an exception. (For more information about the National Letter of Intent program, go to page 27.)]
If you are a partial qualifier or a nonqualifier, you must spend at least one academic year in residence before you are allowed to use an exception.
You cannot use an exception if you are sitting out a year of residence at your current school.
In the sports of baseball or basketball, if you are transferring to a Division I institution at the start of the winter or spring term you will not be eligible to compete until the next fall term, regardless if you meet an exception.
Only qualifiers are allowed to use exceptions during the first year after they enroll at the new school.
