Dandy Don clearing up the new signing rules by lsufanva
I know this guy is supposed to be one that knows but I still believe hes incorrect about the transfers. I've poured over many articles and explanations, while also reading the rule numerous times and the way he explains the transfers as initial counters is not how the rule reads. A kid can't be an initial counter at multiple schools. If he is correct then the word initial needs to be removed from the term. The kicker was an initial counter because he had never been on scholarship. Therefore he is being "counted" for the first time or initially.
Correct, I agree. Absolutely.
Plus, Seth Stewart withdrew before the season started, he gets to be replaced, and Jefferson signed late - as in outside the 2017 counting period window, albeit after the new annual count/year-long counting window kicked in ... starting with the 2018 class (Not the 2017 class that he was a part of). There were 5 EEs last year)2017) and 3 EEs in 2016 (when not all the 25 were used either, adding to the cumulative back counter credit carryforward.
And transfers not previously on scholarship count but transfers previously on scholarship are NOT "initial counters" and do not count against the annual cap limit of 25 initial counters. They do count against the overall cap limit of 85 counters which is cumulative with initial/first time counters and prior counters, but that's a different cap limit.
