Joe Bamisile’s waiver denied by NCAA

Fully expected by most, it stinks for us as he is a proven talent and scorer. A few weeks ago when watching them scrimmage he was definitely a standout. Hoping Joe sticks around and comes in huge next year.
 
Agree with ^. I feel for the young man but at some point the ncaa has to draw the line. This is his third transfer in 3 years. I actually think sitting out a year will help him if he stays focused and productive in all facets of life.

There were similar issues raised with the Tez Walker waiver decision - the NCAA supposedly consulted a board of mental health experts, but that board had absolutely no interaction with Walker.

Mack Brown Responds to NCAA: ‘My Job is to Stand Up For Tez Walker’

The Division I Board issued a statement on Tuesday saying it has been ‘troubled’ by UNC’s leadership.
247sports.com 247sports.com

"The most egregious part of the NCAA statement on Tuesday was its emphasis on mental health waiver decisions being made in consultation with a panel of licensed mental health experts. It was a bad faith argument for one reason: that panel never interacted with Walker in any manner, according to a source familiar with the process."
 
This was to be expected based on the new criteria. As long as they are consistent across the board I'm fine with it. In the past players from certain schools have gotten waivers while others have not. Personally I think they need to do away with the waiver thing and just stick with one undergrad transfer without sitting out.
 
I like Bilas and think he's among the best media types connected to the sport, but he is and has always been in the tank for complete free agency and unlimited money for players. I totally disagree with him.

JBam's father's health is not relevant under the criteria the NCAA published many months ago:

1694627131798.pngAs for JBam's own health issues, you have to understand that if "getting a doc's note" was all that was required, the exception would swallow the rule and the entire process would be a joke.

And I don't think the NCAA ever said its medical panel would interview the kids. I think they do a review of the documentation and whatever testing may have been done to support the "diagnosis."

This sucks for VCU and JBam but is the right direction for college basketball

Ethically a diagnosis cannot be made without examination of the patient. In addition, his father's health could certainly impact his mental health and well-being.

F them. All of the them. I them. I hate them all.
 
We're taking off today as a couple of people haven't replied to texts about doing their property, so yall let me know if there's a #FREEJOE picket line outside the BDC, and one or both of us will meet out there, might be good to get some news crews out there and send a message. I'd need to pick up some cardboard to make some signs, recycling just came yesterday.
