Wow !!!
And in the same day we get a terrific kid for basketball. And great news that only two football players left in corona quarantine. Hat trick day for Rutgers sports.

Everything happens for a reason & everyone is responsible for their own decisions. Good Luck to him.

Blackshear - tough break for him if this holds up. 2019 was his red-shirt year and not being eligible for 2020 will presumably eat up a year of eligibility for him.

 

[buffalochicken21]

Ehh, he endured a hell of a lot playing for Ash. I wanted him to stay but I can't hold it against him for feeling cheated during Ash's time here and just wanting blow the whole situation up and start over.

We don't play VA Tech, so I actually hope he gets a chance to play.

 

[Doctor Worm]

I don't know why he would have expected a waiver, as there was no justifiable rationale for it.

 

[-RUFAN4LIFE-]

This was not unexpected as he went outside the 100 mile radius with his transfer.

 

[jtung230]

Feel for him. Wish him the best.

Apparently it was unexpected by the VT staff and/or whoever else was advising Blackshear.

Per SI...

"Raheem Blackshear's waiver for immediate eligibility was denied by the NCAA. We were shocked and saddened, but will work through the appeals process," head coach Justin Fuente said on Friday.

"Our compliance department will present our case for him in an appeal to the NCAA. We feel good about our stance on the appeal, and I'm cautiously optimistic we can turn it around in relatively short order," Fuente added."

Don't believe everything you read, they knew it would require an appeal because he was outside the 100 mile radius.

Translation: Yeah we know we sold him a bill of goods, but hopefully we can pull a rabbit out of our hat. Either way, he's stuck here now.

 

[NewJerseyGuy]

What is his alleged hardship?

VT is building depth at RB. Good luck with the Scout team Raheem. Maybe you can be a Captain again.

Playing under Ash?

 

[koleszar]

 

[Mr_Twister]

The grass is not always greener.

 

[satnom]

Wish him luck but that kid who was named a captain just straight up quit on his team mates and the program close to the middle of the season.

That tells you all that you need to know.

GO RU

Kind of agree but my take was that he felt Hobbs gave up on us and we changed our Offense mid season to one that did not match his skill set. If Ash and McNulty stayed he would have stayed.

Glad Schiano is here now. Blackshear would have helped us.

 

[rubaseball78]

Ash was his coach.

 

[GSGS]

Who?

Yes, I didn't recognize the name right away either, as to me he will always be QUITshear.

 

[djrc89]

I’m sure he’ll get to play. Probably not this year. He knew it was a possibility if not a likelihood. So I’m personally not so sorry that he doesn’t get everything he wants here. He’ll be ok

 

[Caliknight]

Yes, I didn't recognize the name right away either, as to me he will always be QUITshear.

I honestly forgot about him. Now I remember him. The kid who quit during warm ups.

 

[czxqa]

So when the ACC season gets cancelled, does 2020 still count as his sit out year, or will he have to sit in 21 too?

 

[czxqa]

I honestly forgot about him. Now I remember him. The kid who quit during warm ups.

Lol, yeah, that's the fella.

Best of luck...~:Poopshear!

[RUSK97]

Who’s this Blackshear guy and why should I care?

 

[Knight Shift]

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

I wish him luck. He is talented and should be allowed to play because playing for Ash was a hardship.

 

[LETSGORU91]

This was not unexpected as he went outside the 100 mile radius with his transfer.

....and his name is not Justin Fields.

 

[RUbacker]

He was the captain , they all played for Ash and had a hardship . His job was to lead his players not quit on them and leave them behind.

Just Blackshear, or everyone on the roster?

 

[rurichdog]

He'll play. The coach will give him a few 4th quarter snaps his RS Senior year during a minor bowl game blowout.
