The name pop for the HS recruit is Jordan Phillips Commitment for Oklahoma. Transfer I have no clue, but the word is BIG and he will be able to transfer without sitting.
I think this is what he meant.

Ok, I will release a little of what I know and this will have to do with the transfer due to it already being released on another site. Arthur Brown is appealing the NCAA for a hardship ruling and is very likely going to granted it so he will be eligible this season as well as Bryce is doing the same thing. So, we should know soon as to if he gets the ruling, but that is what I meant by being an immediate help!!!!! Arthur at the LB spot would be huge by the ISU game, and I have been hearing he has been getting reps with the first team!!!!
EMAW!!!!!!!!!!!

Only reason that this would happen is if the family is insisting that OB accept it (and perhaps did all along...part of the deal :dunno:), IMO.

Bryce getting denied. :crossfingers:
I am with you, but how the eff could they grant his brother's and then deny Bryce on the same set of facts? If Arthur gets it, Bryce gets it.
Maybe, just maybe the hardship waiver for Bryce is merely a way to get him on scholarship this year so they don't have to pay (i.e. still redshirt him.). :pray:
-
But, yeah, eff that news. The last thing we need right now is Bryce Brown getting eligible for this season.

Kind of what I'm thinking too. As good as Bryce is, I don't see him stealing a starting spot this year. Are there any transfer rules that could affect his practice time or anything of that nature that him merely redshirting could change? I didn't see him suited up on Saturday, but could have just missed it. Truly a WTF turn of events here, if this is true.

Yep. He cannot practice with the team right now, because he didn't get a release from UT. I don't know whether a hardship would trump the UT non-release, but if it did he could go on full scholarship and practice with the team (and travel), which he cannot do right now.
-
Hell, Bryce probably wouldn't even make 2nd string this year with what Powell did yesterday. If he gets eligible and doesn't redshirt.... :blindfold:
-
Yeah I can't see how one could get in but not the other.
No way Bryce wastes a year, he can redshirt right?
This is rough ridin' weird.

If the staff is using that as a go-between to get him to be able to practice, but still redshirt him, then I am fine with that.

Ya, it's the ONLY scenario that makes sense, apart from some "agreement" with the family. Let's all hope this means that Browns get to avoid paying for school for Bryce and Bryce redshirts.

That would make sense. If that's the case, then I'm happy.

So, whose spot does Arthur take? Is he fast enough to play in Butler's spot? Or, do they go to a more traditional 4-3 system with Arthur in the picture?

Not an X's and O's type, but looking at the depth chart heights and weights, Arthur (6'2, 227) fits Childs's (6'1, 225) spot.

Arthur Brown would be a big deal right now.

cripps has been "talking" about this over on the scout board. apparently, a transfer and a HS recruit are a done deal. felix rex, PM me if you know names. thx.
The name pop for the HS recruit is Jordan Phillips Commitment for Oklahoma. Transfer have no clue but word is BIG and Transfer without setting.

I'm excited as well, but would we be better served to have Brown's services for 2011 and 2012 rather than starting this year and ending next?

On defense, it seems to me that adding a player like Arthur is supposed to be, could be the difference in some games between winning and losing, couldn't it? I mean, that's our weekness, right? No playmakers at LB....christ, here we are with the chance to add one and we should be doing cart wheels, shouldn't we? :dunno:
X's and O's types please confirm/deny.

There is no way the NCAA is going to clear the Brown's to play this year. Hell TN has not even released Bryce. KSU can't even put him on scholarship none the less play him.
-
Butler isn't even really a LB. He's a S we put at LB. Arthur isn't that type of player. Butler is pretty solid in coverage with TE or FB.
-
There is no way the NCAA is going to clear the Brown's to play this year. Hell TN has not even released Bryce. KSU can't even put him on scholarship none the less play him.
Well, my question is whether a hardship would override a refusal by UT to grant a release. Seems like it would to me, since it's "hardship" and all, but I know less about this than almost every single person in the entire world.

Would whatever they are doing to get them eligible right away be independent of scholarships?
-
Can't think of a single instance in which a player would be eligible to play but not eligible for a schollie. Plus, Arthur is already on scholarship.
-
You would think though that when Bryce was asking for his release from UT that part of his case would have been medical/family hardship.
-
UT wasn't going to release Brown for any reason. That's why you go to the NCAA. Not exactly siure why, but Bryce gave the Vols a serious case of the red ass.

everyone shut up. you know it's not going to happen.

Based on what? It's not like we have a bunch of great QB commitments, and DT is done after this year. If AB can give us an extra win or two, this year could actually end up being pretty fantastic. I don't like trading a win today for a win tomorrow.

esp since a win or 2 extra this year could mean winning the north.

Cripps isn't even that reliable of a source. He was the one that claimed Masoli visited Manhattan and really enjoyed his visit. Anyways, how the shazbot! could they get eligible this season. There's a 0% chance of that happening.

Also, anyone who suggests they'd rather not have Bryce this season. :bang:
Even if you're :bait: , still :bang:
No way he is a 5 year college player. Guess maybe it would be better to have a well rested BB for the 1/2 seasons we do have him on the field if he sits out?
-
IT isn't basketball TK, he most definitely is a 4 or 5 year player.
-

4 year? Maybe. 50-75% chance. 5 year? 0-1% chance (barring major injury). He's ideal NFL height/weight. + speed. +hips. Good runner inside. Good hands. Played well as a true frosh in the SEC. He wasn't the #1 recruit in the country out of high school for nothing. Only reason to hope he sits out is it might moderately improve our chances to have him back as a rshirt jr/true sr. Forget about 5 from Bryce. If he gets there it will mean he's been much less productive then we all hope/expect he will be.
-
I don't understand why all of you guys are so high on Bryce. Being the number one recruit means nothing. High school is a different game. He wasn't phenomenal as a true freshman, so what about last season makes you think he's going to be a top 5 running back in 1 or 2 years? Look, I'd be ecstatic if Bryce came in and dominated Big Twen defenses, but so far I haven't seen anything that makes me think he will.

From 2002-2009 only one #1 recruit from rivals rankings isn't playing in the NFL...or not that I know of, but I think he was drafted as a return guy maybe. That was Derrick Williams from 05, played at Penn St., and even he was pretty decent in college. Oh and Pryor, but he's still playing college ball for now. The rest of the #1's from that stretch:
2002- Vince Young
2003- Ernie Sims
2004- Adrian Peterson
2005- Derrick Williams
2006- Percy Harvin
2007- Jimmy Clausen
2008- Terrelle Pryor
2009- Bryce
So Bryce has some history on his side, but also to live up to as the #1 H.S. recruit.
-
Bryce didn't have a standout Freshman year...so what. I don't think he had the greatest O-Line in front of him either.

As a back-up, ran for 460 yards, 3 TD's, 10 receptions for 137 yards with one receiving touchdown. All that with not much of a O-line, or a adequate QB as well, and all that in the SEC, arguably the best conference in the nation.
I think he had a solid FR year.

2002- Vince Young
2003- Ernie Sims
2004- Adrian Peterson
2005- Derrick Williams
2006- Percy Harvin
2007- Jimmy Clausen
2008- Terrelle Pryor
2009- Bryce
So Bryce has some history on his side, but also to live up to as the #1 H.S. recruit.
Young - 4 years
Sims - 3 years
Peterson - 3 years
Wiliams - 4 years
Harvin - 3 years
Clausen - 3 years

2002- Vince Young- Redshirted, 4 years and played 3
2003- Ernie Sims- 3 years
2004- Adrian Peterson-3 years
2005- Derrick Williams- 4 years
2006- Percy Harvin- 3 years
2007- Jimmy Clausen- 3 years
I guess I stand corrected. Most of these guys played 3 years in college and then decided to go out for the Draft. I wouldn't say all of them were stars (Sims and Williams) But that list is still pretty impressive.
I still look at it like this, Bryce hasn't proved to me he will be a top 5 running back. Of course I hope he can be, but so far I wouldn't claim him to be our savior. This list of #1s does change my outlook a little though..
EDIT: didn't see your list threadkiller

bryce is nice

Cripps isn't even that reliable of a source. He was the one that claimed Masoli visited Manhattan and really enjoyed his visit. Anyways, how the shazbot! could they get eligible this season. There's a 0% chance of that happening.
AB and BB becoming eligible seem like long shots, but cripps is anything but unreliable.
I didn't necessarily say he was unreliable, but what inside info has he released in the past that nobody else knew of? I honestly can't come up with anything.
Cripps may be exceptionally enthusiastic, but he's definitely not unreliable. And for the most part, he doesn't post insider info on open forums.
Yes, because he doesn't have much inside info. Everyone thinks he knows everything because of his sources, when infact, he doesn't know much more than you and I.

Pretty sure Sims was selected with the 10th pick when he came out.

Maybe I'm just skeptical because my high school played him and held him to under 100 yards rushing.... I don't really know. I just don't want to get my hopes up :frown:

Maybe he was bored that night

Maybe you're just an idiot. You look at the list of coaches who recruited him, hard?

We held Bryce to -13 yards. Just sayin'. :gocho: He was a freshman, and Arthur torched us for like 140 yards.
