He should be graduated by now. Playing bball overseas. How happy can he be? Sitting out NIT games.

Are you really trying to compare a student athlete vs a student paying his own way? Weird!

I payed my own way and graduated in 4...I guess I'm better than you and Angel?

Sure. That wasn't the point. I just hate it when fans from schools are like: "Man, I really wish Angel was on our team this year!" When like, if he stayed, he'd be ineligible. So why are you wasting your time? But thanks for trying, scottwildcat.

Also, lol @ comparing someone on a free ride vs your normal college student paying his way through college. Wtf would you care if they took an extra year? They're not clogging up a scholarship and they're not being rewarded by any means to stay another year.

Unless he took a medical shirt in 2013-14 (as rumored)

[420seriouscat69]

He wanted to play right away at Miami, so I guess you could still believe that.

[michigancat]

Angel would have been eligible for the 14-15 season

8man is correct, you are incorrect.

Rodriguez and Miami are not even waiting for an NCAA decision: the point guard will sit out.

“I should let everybody know that when Angel contacted us and made the decision to transfer here, in one of our very first conversations, Angel shared with me, that he was struggling with injuries that he sustained during his two years in college. One was a wrist injury, and one was a very serious tendinitis in his knee...

“When Angel and I talked about him for this upcoming year, the discussion was, ‘There is no sense applying for the waiver to help you be eligible when you're not physically going to be fit enough.' He told me at that time, he would much prefer to just sit out the year anyway, learn the new system and be 100%, or close to 100%, for his last two years.

it turns out that Rodriguez never even applied for the waiver.

According to Miami head coach Jim Larrañaga, Rodriguez spent the summer trying to get to 100% as a couple of nagging injuries kept him off the court.

“One was a wrist injury, and one was a very serious tendinitis in his knee,” Larrañaga said. “When we had him visit with our trainer Wes Brown, Wes felt that it was so severe that he took him to our team doctors. They did x-rays and MRI’s, and eventually shut him down the entire summer.” Eventually, both coach and player decided against applying for the waiver.

the decision to forego a waiver was more the by-product of circumstance than it was a well-thought-out plan.

You see, Rodriguez played through a knee injury throughout his time at Kansas State. He wasn’t healthy when he got to Miami, and he didn’t want to waste a year of eligibility if he wasn’t going to be playing at 100%.

Well, there you have it...
