Wow! Makes a lot of sense.

I suppose the question I posed at 9.23am on the Next Year thread ("Given that Joey's not playing this year, I wonder if he's focusing his energy in the weight room, and building some of that necessary muscle now. Are trainers from the schools where a player has committed allowed to inform/guide them before they arrive on campus?") precipitated this decision.

Haha dude, it was all you! Thank you so much!

Sorry .. I pay zero attention to incoming guys until they are here. Can someone explain .. has Joey graduated from high school? I don't understand how he's here before August.

He graduated. Sounds like a bit of a slacker compared to Markus who graduated in 3.

This is exciting. Should help his recovery and give him a bit of a head start on his freshman season.

Ben Steele states in his article: "He is rated the No. 2 recruit in Wisconsin and the No. 45 national prospect by 247sports"

Who is number one in WI? Thanks.

So, will he be considered a freshman next year, or a red-shirt freshman, or a sophomore with 4 years of eligibility remaining?

Honestly, its very easy to graduate from high school in 3.5 years, even if you are not trying. I would guess that most of the kids in my graduating class could have graduated in December but didn't because that's just not the norm. I realized that I had completed all of my high school requirements by my junior year. I took a bunch of AP classes and bs classes like photography and film study my senior year just to enjoy it.

1. This is a good development for MU basketball.
2. I do not think this is positive for Young Hauser personally. You only have one senior year of high school . Life happens in the order it happens for a reason. No reason to give up those last great high school days early.

Joey joined MU early to ensure that Tyler Herro knows he is fully committed. Herro will decommit from Kentucky and join MU next year!

That is a negative. But, that's overshadowed by the benefits of the re-hab and to get acclimated to college life and basketball. Kind of hard to sit on the bench at SPASH and not play as well.

I don't know about you Hermie, but freshmen year in college was far better and more memorable than senior year in high school. And, I couldn't even remember at the time half the weekends freshmen year.

I'm sure this is a dumb question, but I'll pose it anyway: is there any precedent for graduating HS at semester and joining your college team mid-season?

Hypothetically speaking, are there any loopholes that would have allowed Joey, if healthy, to graduate Friday and suit up next Wednesday?

GB Warrior · « **Reply #37 on:** January 17, 2018, 11:16:45 AM »

Can he just immediately request a medical redshirt?

Wiley did it for Pearl just last year.

It's pretty unprecedented since the high school basketball season covers two semesters.

Yeah by my senior year, I was ready to be out of high school. He aint missing much.

This is all part of Joey's plan to play at ISU as a grad transfer.

Jarnell Stokes did it for Tennessee a few years back.

Yeah life happens in that order because an erbitrary number set up. If you were raised thinking that number was 17 or 19 it'd be no different.

It would burn a season to play 1 semester. Plus, he's hurt.
