Jarboe to sit out the season

For those still wondering, Troy transfer Josh Jarboe will sit out this season because of NCAA transfer eligibility rules.

Jarboe transferred to Troy a couple weeks ago after being dismissed from Oklahoma for a rap video he participated in found its way onto YouTube. Initially, Troy was hopeful that Jarboe had not been admitted to Oklahoma, which would have made him eligible to play this season. But Oklahoma officials said he had been enrolled and would be considered a transfer student per NCAA rules.

Troy attempted to dispute the ruling, but failed.

Jarboe will continue to practice with Troy.

I think this is inflexible/wrong of the NCAA, until the semester actually begins should be the cutoff date, not enrollment. Not that I really care in his case. :)

And we Care , WHY ?

[birddog]

i'd like to see him run wild on boone state. other than that, i don't give a rip.

Could we get a team together of folks who got kicked off or promised to play for us and play them??

That would be cool.

Wasn't Perriloux once in that line-up?

Jarboe will now receive the education every athlete deserves!

...but it will be at an inferior university to OU and he won't get to play football for a year.

What's the over/under that he can stay out of trouble/jail/prison for an entire year.

I'd say not too likely.

3 1/2 years ........... over or under that???

Another bull**** ruling by the National Communists Against Athletes imo

[JLEW1818]

It will be good for him. He will have 5 years education wise. If he does not hit the under...

I agree, kid made some bad choices and he is paying for them. What could be worse than being kicked out of THE UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA.

OK, being penguins cell mate could be worse. ;) but you get the point, let the kid play.

never even cracked a book at OU.

The next thing you know, he will have to ATTEND CLASSES. They might even make him WAKE UP in the morning. (But I doubt it.)

Let's all shed a tear for Jarboe. Must be rough.
