    Suriano question

    In sum: PSU were being dicks when they didn't agree to support the application they weren't allowed to read.

    Suriano question

    No, the purpose was to generate sympathy in pursuit of a waiver, not harm PSU. And I don't pretend to know the underlying facts here, but you don't know them either. But what is ascertainable enough is that the Surianos and/or Rutgers were telling an incomplete side of the story, else we'd know...

    Suriano question

    Well that's certainly moving the goal posts quite a bit. I think it was pretty obvious the Surianos and/or Rutgers were telling slanted story to Dunleavy in that the "rubber stamp" characterization is laughable given all that is known about B1G intra-conference transfers. So no, not a...

    Suriano question

    Your source has an inherent bias, being close to the program, and your source is also all over the place.

    Yeah, I never came across anything similar either when I was researching this topic. Whether or not that's the case it couldn't hurt to petition anyway, and I imagine that's probably what's happening right now. I'm not ready to presume that the B1G requires you to roll the dice on a transfer...

    Insiders what's up with Nick

    The NCAA transfer rules still require the letter to contact and the release regardless of sport and failure to do so results in the loss of an academic scholarship for one year. The NCAA rule to which you're referring (penalizing certain sports but not wrestling) applies only to the question...

    Insiders what's up with Nick

    Penn State fan chiming in here to note that I explored this same question in a post on BWT [here], and I don't think it's that B1G rules supersede NCAA rules because the rules don't actually conflict (and for obvious reasons can't conflict)--they penalize different aspects of the same event. In...
