Is he injured?No. ND wont reneg. Murphys Law. Injuries happen.
agreed. Makes no sense to prepare all off season, get 4 games in, have arguably one of your best games to things are looking up, then quit and look for another team to play for and watch the rest of the college football season from your dorm room.....strange.This is the stuff that really bugs me. The portal. NIL, all of these new introductions with little to no rules/ramifications are poison. Where are we going as a society? This quitting mid season and moving on. What kind of character are we promoting for our future generations? "Hey let's dump 29 players and go in the portal" "hey I'm playing but not enough, I'm going to dump my team and go get mine." I absolutely refuse to have any respect for this guy for doing this. Not finishing the year. It's a quitter and a traitor IMO. One thing to leave end of year. But he's quitting on his team 1/3 of the way in.
NoBut in order to have the scholarship he has to play right, unless he is injured which he is not.
Because of recruiting deadlines, new hires are made after the regular season ends. Thought you’d know that already.He left his teams before their seasons were over. When he didn't need to.
Yes, other coaches do that as well; but that doesn't make it okay.
You all are complete buffoons. He's looking to preserve a redshirt year. He played in 11 games in his previous 3 years at ND. This gives him another year to play somewhere else. He did what he felt was right for him.agreed.

Anyone have an Advil?The portal giveth, and the portal taketh away. Although in ND’s case, there may turn out to be a lot more GIVING than TAKING. Besides, how good a deal is it when at least HALF of your GETS so far are from Northwestern, Harvard and the Naval Academy. Katy, bar the door! There are HUNS here!
But like it or not, this sort of thing is now SOP. And you have to wonder if it might not become even more of A THING than it already is. The more players do it, the more other players may do it. I mean, we ARE talking about young males without fully developed PREFRONTAL CORTEXES.
What it says to me, though, is that MONETIZATION and MARKET VALUES have fully PENETRATED CFB. The ultimate aim of the market model is PERSONAL GAIN. Without their being COUNTERVAILING REGULATION of some kind, all other values are DRIVEN OUT as in Gresham’s Law of debased money.
But here’s the kicker. Once the REWARDS INCENTIVES have been structured in such a way that great gains are IN THEORY achievable – and in some cases, ACTUALLY achievable – what player intent on playing in the NFL is going to pass at a shot at the BRASS RING?
If I can increase my playing time somewhere and therefore improve my draft stock am I not a fool not to try? I fully agree with you that the SPIRIT OF THE GAME has been WHOLLY CORRUPTED, but that’s what happens once money becomes the SOLE DETERMINANT in how people behave.
When they give you a chip, YOU PLAY IT.
And this is just the BEGINNING. What’s already happened was INEVITABLE given the game’s recent TRAJECTORY and may very well be IRREVERSIBLE. There are folks on both the LEFT and the RIGHT who seek greater PLAYER EMPOWERMENT and/or STAKEHOLDER STATUS AND PROTECTIONS.
We’ll see how it plays out. One thing I feel is certain, though. Whatever is decided, NO ONE will be looking to COUGH UP A DIME. And TEAM IS NO LONGER THE THING. It’s instead about the players as self-interested ECONOMIC ENTITIES. And the only destiny they care about is THEIRS.
As they used to say each morning at Salomon Brothers – LET’S MAKE SOME F*****G MONEY!
(No, I didn’t work there, but they WERE a client.)
You really should stop talking about yourself on here.You all are complete buffoons. He's looking to preserve a redshirt year. He played in 11 games in his previous 3 years at ND. This gives him another year to play somewhere else. He did what he felt was right for him.
He wants to play 6 seasons. And start somewhere. He will.You all are complete buffoons. He's looking to preserve a redshirt year. He played in 11 games in his previous 3 years at ND. This gives him another year to play somewhere else. He did what he felt was right for him.
Football players, those that play for the love of the game, do not consider the sidelines as being in the game. Some kids want to actually play; even those who do not have professional aspiration. Good luck to the kid!You all are complete buffoons. He's looking to preserve a redshirt year. He played in 11 games in his previous 3 years at ND. This gives him another year to play somewhere else. He did what he felt was right for him.
The program will survive regardless what ever happens. Even 0 and 12. But do you want to be a better team or a lesser team? The more good players you have the odds of you being a good team goes up. Everytime we lose someone you or that tool pennick say the same thing. It's moronicCan the program survive?
"That rule implies you finish the year but don't play in more than 4 games."That's fine. That rule implies you finish the year but don't play in more than 4 games. My point is how can you quit and still use it as a redshirt? To me, if you quit. No redshirt. No more scholarship either.
I'm thinking this has a lot to do with expectations of Rubio... For our sake this hopefully means that lacey would be passed on the depth chart.This hurts for this year and next
How does it hurt for next year? Lacey has 1 year of eligibility left. If he plays in more than 4 games this year he's done.This hurts for this year and next
No, because of the free Covid year, he has an additional year. So he'll be able to play for his new team for 2 years, if he wants.How does it hurt for next year? Lacey has 1 year of eligibility left. If he plays in more than 4 games this year he's done.
more reason for him to transfer. He can’t play football forever.No, because of the free Covid year, he has an additional year. So he'll be able to play for his new team for 2 years, if he wants.
He now has 2 years left with him reshirting this yearHow does it hurt for next year? Lacey has 1 year of eligibility left. If he plays in more than 4 games this year he's done.
Depth....he wouldve been at worst our number 3 behind Cross and Rubio. Thats valuableI'm thinking this has a lot to do with expectations of Rubio... For our sake this hopefully means that lacey would be passed on the depth chart.
How? only have 4 years of eligibility, he's burned 3 at ND, leaving one year remaining.He now has 2 years left with him reshirting this year
I don't see many taking advantage of that.No, because of the free Covid year, he has an additional year. So he'll be able to play for his new team for 2 years, if he wants.
2019 - year 1How? only have 4 years of eligibility, he's burned 3 at ND, leaving one year remaining.
Many already have and will continue toI don't see many taking advantage of that.
well, they do have to carry credit classes, right? and if they are not pro prospects, they might as well play college football! the economy is going down the crapper! the players get board and meals, right?I don't see many taking advantage of that.
forgot about the covid year. Again, not many have leveraged the covid year.2019 - year 1
2020 - doesnt count covid
2021 - year 2
2022 - redshirt
2023 - year 3
2024 - year 4
He has 2 years left
Across the country, yes they have. Hinish did it last year for us. Josh Lugg this year. Bo Bauer this year. Avery Davis was using it as well this year but got hurtforgot about the covid year. Again, not many have leveraged the covid year.
Onye too... I think he saw that he'd be a role player at best. He can go somewhere lower tier and star.Depth....he wouldve been at worst our number 3 behind Cross and Rubio. Thats valuable
I don’t think fans are selfish. He made a commitment to his teammates and he bailed on them. I have no problem with him wanting to transfer but do it either before the season or after the season. To quit in the middle of the season is selfish on his part.^ fans are selfish
his teammates probably are supportive of him; next?I don’t think fans are selfish. He made a commitment to his teammates and he bailed on them.

If he can’t play at ogre Dane how is he going to play in the NFL ?The kid wants to play in the NFL. He thinks transferring will make that more likely.
Now, if you think schools should have the right to keep players from transferring, then you should support unionization. That would bring collective bargaining and rules for contracts etc.
and fans are rude idiots at times; ^You’re a moron in case you didn’t know!
Coaches don’t leave prior to the end of the regular season unless they’re fired or resign, usually for medical/personal reasonsNah. As long as coaches can leave before the end of the season, players should be able to as well.
Name the coaches.He left his teams before their seasons were over. When he didn't need to.
Yes, other coaches do that as well; but that doesn't make it okay.
