He may very well red-shirt in baseball this year, but I don't believe it's because he has to. He was not on a baseball scholarship at ASU and never offically played ball there. Besides, I'm not sure, does a baseball transfer have to sit out a year?

[Snapshot9]

In the paper this morning, that he signed the financial agreement on Thursday and will start practicing with the Basketball team immediately.

I assume that means at the start of next week.

It doesn't make any difference if he was on a baseball or basketball scholorship because he was at Arizona State and is considered a transfer

I feel confident enough to say that if Gene wants him to play, then he will play this season, the 2009 spring baseball season.


That is all.

[ShockTalk]

Probably won't, but what if he gets the exception before the baseball season. Personally, I'd like to see him red-shirt both sports this season.

I know he can't play this season, but maybe just practicing with the team will somehow rejuvenate them.

At least we don't have to worry about him disrupting our team chemistry. :D

TaTown, I think the slugger you were trying to recall may have been Drew Moffet (sp?.)

Now!

Personally, I hope Coy can and does play baseball this year.

A guy who came in as a 7th round draft choice and was reportedly offered higher-round money to sign, why spent the fall practicing at Arizona State, isn't going to be a four year baseball player anyway. So the Shocks might as well get him underway and enjoy as much play from him as possible, while they can. It won't affect his basketball one way or the other.

Besides, this year more than most, the baseball team looks like it could use the help.

Thanks, yes that's who i was thinking of. Just couldn't recall his name. Really he was the last home run hitter WSU has had.

Ok buddy calm down, just repeating what he was quoted as saying. below his quote taken from the wichita eagle article found here. http://www.kansas.com/sports/shockers/story/663746.html

Details of Coy's transfer to WSU are developing. He can practice with the basketball team. He said he may explore playing for the baseball team this spring, something he believes may be possible because he was not on baseball scholarship at Arizona State.

So give Coy a call and tell him it doesn't make any difference. I would imagine he has a pretty good grasp on all of this seeing how much research and time his family took to make a decision. Not saying you are not correct just saying that I got this from the paper rather that just making it up in my head.

Why should I call him I know what the NCAA transfer rules. He will only play baseball if the NCAA gives him a waiver. He knows I know and you dont

[WuDrWu]

The NCAA is going to give him a waiver.


I know.

Once again buddy..........I said I didn't know. Simply repeating what he said. Also I stated that you may be correct on it.

[shock10]

I hope he is in the batting cage tomorrow. I just love baseball.
