re: Bama's Early Enrollees Potentially Get Screwed by Saban's Timing

quote:
1. Alabama has at least 16 early enrollees this recruiting cycle
2. If requested, a recruit/commit must be automatically released from their letter of intent if (1) the coach leaves, AND (2) they haven't attended classes yet
3. Alabama's spring semester started yesterday, January 10th
Because Saban waited to announce his retirement until after classes started, the early enrollees are no longer entitled to an automatic release from their NLI. They will have to ask Bama to release them voluntarily. If Bama doesn't consent, the EEs would have to take an appeal to the NLI committee or stick around for the spring semester and THEN transfer out.
They still have multiple avenues to get out if they want, but because of Saban's timing they will have to jump through hoops.
Or they could enter the transfer portal quickly and find a new school to attend before new school's last day to enroll for the spring semester. Granted this will burn their one time free transfer without having to sit out a year per current NCAA by-law, but who knows what the results of the lawsuit/temporary injunction against the NCAA re: additional transfer/year is residence restriction will have.
