They don't qualify. But others have gotten the waivers for less. So they will apply -
The problem is that Teddy also admitted, IIRC, to consumption of some illegal substances that contributed to his problems. No way was the NCAA was going to overlook that and grant a waiver, in my opinion.Originally posted by Shock Top View PostComment

I think few of them thought it through, though I am happy for AM. I think two more years of playing a lot could help him tremendously. I can't see DD leaving. He wants to play, show his skills, and get drafted. I am pulling for him.Originally posted by MelvinLoudermilk View PostComment

I too thought that article was a bad idea all around. I appreciate the honesty but not sure who benefited from it being written.Originally posted by RoyalShock View PostComment

I wouldn't be surprised if the transfers who moved closer to home all get a waiver because of COVID - 19 . " I wanted to be closer to my Mommy
".
Which - BTW is a legitimate excuse in my opinion. I've been home from Arizona for a month to be nearer my wife's aging parents and my daughter who is very susceptible.Comment

In keeping with this consider rein vs reign or even rain. Rein means the reins on a horse which is the most common use on Shockernet, "to rein in the troops". Reign usually has to do with some sovereign power and while I do consider 3G the king it is more likely we prefer rein vs reign.Originally posted by JVShocker View Post
Not to be an arse, but I think its spelled...
However, it could mean we are raining threes. BTW it's as above should have an apostrophe between the t and s. A little more love to follow;
Sorry, but I'm bored!
Some words exist in English language which have same sounds but different meanings. Rain, reign and rein also fall in this category.

The rain washed away all the dirt from plants and trees.
Rain is also used for describing a large quantity of things that are descending or that fall upon something. This rain has synonyms like shower, deluge, flood, torrent, spate, and avalanche, outpouring, rush or flurry. When there is a heavy fall of something, it is called rain.

The descend of arrows here, is referred to as rain which destroyed the whole army.
Rain as verb:
The falling of water drops from the sky is rain as verb which describes the action taking place. It started raining. The rain when used as a verb, defines the act of water falling or a descend of anything. In other words, the meaning of rain is same as a noun and a verb, the difference lies is the usage only.
