It was only right after he who shall not be named got his waiver at Ohio
Idk how Felicia and he got hardships but Eason couldn't
I don't think Eason knew that was an option. Considering he basically sat out most of 2017 anyway I don't know why they wouldn't have given it to him. Guess he knew he wasn't going to beat out Jake Browning
Eason did the transfer by the rules at the time. Didn't take the "poor pitiful me" approach like they are all doing now. More power to him and I'm a big supporter. Hope he balls out.
I don’t think him starting is anywhere near a lock. I’d keep an eye on Jarren Williams.
Roger that. I intend to follow him closely. He has dealt with everything from the time he was injured until the day he starts like a GROWN man. He will be rewarded.
Are we sure? He couldn't beat out Rosier and Perry last year. @SoFL_Dawg any intel from down your way on this QB battle?
@ghostofuga1
Would love to see him and he who shall not be named in one bracket of the playoff. Or us defeat JE in the first round and JFQ in the second round
nope, sorry.
No worries...worth a shot
If this continues it’ll ruin college football
Wow. Fields gets hardship because he tried but couldn’t win starting job now Martel gets it just because the coaches cuddle up to JF.
SMH
Eason might have if an application had actually been filed. Can you think of a reason why one wasn’t?
I think sitting out one year will work well for Eason. Gives him a chance to better learn the system and have more time to develop friendships and become a team leader. He should earn his degree this year and would still have second year of eligibility at Washington if he needs it or wants it. I hope he has a great season!
The NCAA is a total cluster f. Mark Emmert is a joke. Guess I won't cry if it helps UGA one sunny day.
Agree. There was no point in Eason applying for a waiver with Browning still there as a sr. It would have been a wasted year of eligibility if he had played in mop up duty. Ive seen several people make the above comment regarding Eason not getting a waiver. It’s an altogether uninformed thought.
Did any one really think he would not be eligible? Once they granted Felicia, then the writing was on the wall. NCAA could not be totally outright bias with Tate and Miami.
^ Similar to a fan of one team, joining a message board of another ?
Because Browning was a senior QB that had lots of PT. He was the pronounced man. Even if Eason could of beaten him, I'm not sure the result would of been worth the team turmoil it would of caused. Eason knew the door would be wide open for him this year to step in and show off what he's got.
When Martell was interviewed before the Rose Bowl, didn't he say that Day had promised him the starting job? I wasn't totally paying attention but I thought I heard a reporter asking him if he had talked to Day and Day had promised he would be the starting qb. If that is true then I could see how he got the waiver.
Also has anybody ever looked up info on JF1's quaterback guru? I tried and couldn't find anything in his past jobs that could possible make him a guru in anything much less a quarterback guru.
