First I’ve heard about Marcel. Can he transfer again without sitting out?

Marcel has been an initial signee already. LSU would be stupid to count the same person twice.

Rant rumors


I mean Ika literally posted a picture of him making a sack with the caption “im coming back”.

Seems like a little more than a rant rumor there. I have no idea where the Marcel thing is coming from though

I don't believe Marcel Brooks would affect recruiting numbers as we already used an initial counter on him

I posted this is the thread on the rant. Maybe Indiana Tiger still reads this board and will chime in.

quote:

Question on Brooks would he count again...

I don't believe he would, it's not totally clear, though.
quote:

15.5.1.10.1 Limitation on Number of National Letter of Intent/Offer of Financial Aid Signings -- Bowl Subdivision Football. [FBS] In bowl subdivision football, there shall be an annual limit of 25 on the number of prospective student-athletes who may sign a National Letter of Intent or an institutional offer of financial aid  and student-athletes who may sign a financial aid agreement for the first time.

First time signers are initial counters. I believe this is written like it is because scholarships are renewed each year, so, obviously guys don't count as initial counters in years 2-4. But I'm not sure if this resets when the athlete leaves a school, signs with a different school, then returns to the first school.

Edit: This makes it seem like he would count, since they make a specific provision for 2 year schools and make no specific provision for 4 year institutions.
quote:

15.5.6.3.7 Returning Two-Year Transfer. [FBS/FCS] A student-athlete who previously was an initial counter and who transferred to a two-year college shall not be an initial counter upon return to the original institution.

You can’t just bail when things get rough and then decide to come back. I would never trust anyone like that.

I’m pretty confident he didn’t bail when things were rough. They were actually great. Now, I understand not taking him back but with our numbers you might have to make exceptions if he doesn’t count 2 for 1.

Well we had like 47 scholarship players available at the end of the game last night. Beggars can’t be choosers right now.

Brooks couldn’t find a spot at 2 different schools. At some point he is what he is

Brooks can rush the passer. If that’s all he can do in limited reps, I’ll take it.

I agree. He may be a tweener, but he has a real skill and got on the field last year because of it.

You don't think he had a spot in the defense last year? I really don't agree with that.

Was a square peg in a round hole

205lb edge rusher isn’t really sustainable
