He carried a crazy big roster at ASU, too. But, it was kids that were not on scholarship and they were just happy to be included.
Auburn carries a roster a LOT larger than most.
That's a lot of kids left high-and-dry.
Meyers was a very good coach.
But last season's drama is pretty tough to overcome.
Such a Big Time program in the SEC.
I wonder who is on the short-list to replace him?
And I wonder if the eventual replacement leaves their own team high-and-dry, unscrupulously, at the this late juncture,
to jump on an SEC team from a "lesser conference"?
Could produce a cascading-effect of coaching position changes this Fall!
Classes started Monday, so the 5-year clock did too for freshmen. Playing in fall games triggers a season of competition, however there appears to be a freshman exception on it. It also doesn't preclude players from transferring between terms (e.g. Shelby Pendley AZ to OK 2012-13).The team members are free to transfer, but yes, classes started this week. (If what I read is correct.) And if memory serves me, if they play the fall season, that is a year of eligibility. I guess they could transfer in January. But, that would not be optimum.
ESPNW just broke a long story on the teams complaints about Cory. Evidently, the girls presented several people with evidence of the affair and were mistreated for complaining.
I'll see if I can get a link.
