Your waiver will be approved if you hire the right attorney, if you don't, its a crapshoot. Evidently Phil family didn't hire the right guy.

Even if its not an inherently corrupt process (which I think it is), it is a major problem for the NCAA that it appears openly corrupt and biased to universally ever college football fan

Alohi Gilman lost a year and but all these average joes with no extenuating circumstances get free passes for no reason whatsoever. There is no consistency or fairness.

Is everybody just getting passes due to the pandemic? Was Luke Ford denied this year or last year?

The consistency is ‘does it help Notre Dame??... then, DENY!!’

So silly, but not unexpected. No consistency to how they handle this stuff, unless it could potentially negatively affect us.

I think the decision making got more liberal after Gilman got knocked back something changed with maybe Field or maybe it was someone earlier. If the Gilman one happened now it would get looked at differently.

Who is his competition?

Douglas Flutie III

I'm not sure he has much competition; they're primary starter from last year appeared to be Grosel who started against us; his stats aren't impressive. In 11 games: 48.4%, 983 yards, 9TD/3INT. Decent runner.

I think the hype alone makes Phil J the front runner. Now that he has his waiver, he has three years of eligibility at BC.

Sooo on Driskell's latest podcast he mentioned that "multiple sources" confirmed that PJ was basically done dirty -- promises were made that the staff had clearly no intention of keeping, little to no time spend on attempting to develop him as a RS frosh, throwing him under the bus with regards to his abilities (when he showed otherwise in practice), people inside the Gug letting it be known that they intended to play Buchner from day 1, etc.

Can this possibly be true? And before anyone says, "Oh it's just Driskell being Driskell" -- please don't. I am very skeptical with his information as well, but something seems off with the PJ stuff. His recent IG post (maybe it was just something he liked on IG) seemed really out of character, and there have been rumblings of a fractured relationship with the staff for quite some time.

I dunno, something just seems off with this whole situation is what I keep coming back to. I know Driskell has an ax to grind with the staff, especially on the offensive side and ESP with Rees, but still -- it kinda adds up that PJ at least felt as though he was never given a fair shake and that's where all the resentment is coming from.
