Sorry, you transferred those are the rules.  There is no dying grandma etc. I didn't like the transfers but in my mind I let it go until this kind of BS.

I don't see any issue with his comments. Seems like he doesn't expect to get it, but based on some head scratching NCAA decisions, it doesn't hurt to try.

[wadesworld]

Who?

[Ardmore Mug]

I would be surprised if he got it.  The guy from OSU, who didn't even play at all, didn't get a waiver and can't play till 2nd semester for da Vadgers...

[Silent Verbal]

Who?

I think you were talking about him when you started this thread:

Or was that a different Joey Hauser?

Never heard of him.

[Galway Eagle]

Trying a different angle? Anybody have any idea what that'd be?

He wrote the NCAA a letter telling them how they should be doing their job.

That it was a hardship for him to enter Marquette early, get operated on and treated by doctors and physical therapists who have worked with pro athletes versus staying in high school how he wanted and getting treated by the town veterinarian in The Point.

It's worth a try, right?  Izzo has gotten his players out of felony charges and has claimed ignorance on a massive sexual abuse cases right underneath his nose.  This is just a parking ticket.

Why are you all so invested in this?

[Lennys Tap]

He wrote the NCAA a letter telling them how they should be doing their job.

He? He who? I thought you never heard of the guy(s) you were slurping all over 9 months ago. You know, the "winners"? What's up with that?

[Class71]

Will be interesting to see if he progresses at MSU.

Move along

[The Sultan]

I hope he is successfully granted his waiver.

The scoop meltdown would be epic and entertaining.     And it would cement Sparty as the #1 team in the country. 

[Cheeks]

I hope he is successfully granted his waiver.

I do not.  He knew the deal, take responsibility for one's decisions.

[TheGym]

This quote was interesting from Izzo:

"What impressed me about Joey is he's a little more physical than I thought, a little more defensive than I thought, "

He was really a liability last year defensively, maybe he is learning.

[MUfan12]

He was really a liability last year defensively, maybe he is learning.

Immature players let their offense affect how they defend. Joey struggled on the offensive end, and it showed on defense.

[Frenns Liquor Depot]

I do not.  He knew the deal, take responsibility for one's decisions.

Joey doesn't issue waivers.  I think you should take up your grievance with the member institutions that form the NCAA.

[Pakuni]

I mean, it's not like the NCAA would ever abandon its principles regarding transfers to benefit a high-profile Big 10 program.
Just ask Justin Fields and Shea Patterson.

[Silent Verbal]

I think it's interesting that Joey mentioned "something came up" in a conversation with Izzo that led to him applying for a waiver, but wouldn't elaborate other than to say it was a long story.  Both the Hausers and Wojo have been tight-lipped about the actual reasons for the transfer.  Perhaps the other shoe will drop if he's granted his waiver.

I don't see any issue with his comments. Seems like he doesn't expect to get it, but based on some head scratching NCAA decisions, it doesn't hurt to try.

"When we filed the appeal, I was planning on not playing this year. ... It's something we looked into, and it got my hopes up a little bit," he said. "You never know. Some guys get it, some guys don't."

I'm with you, I see nothing to take issue within his comments. He sounds very realistic. But, when people have jilter lover syndrome...
