A question for those who know the rules inside and out, what constitutes a "Second Semester Eligible Transfer" or "Second Semester Eligible Player"? Normally that would be someone who transferred into a school before the spring semester began a year ago and thus becomes eligible once final exams end the next year. For example, if a player had left School X at Christmas-time last year and transferred to Holy Cross, he would have become eligible once final exams ended this year. In the great majority of cases, a transfer must spend two semesters at his new school before being eligible. That is especially true in the case of someone who transfers mid-year.

A question for those who know the rules inside and out, what constitutes a "Second Semester Eligible Transfer" or "Second Semester Eligible Player"? I don't know the rules inside out. However it is my understanding a transfer must sit out a full year aka two full semesters. In order to be second semester eligible, someone would have to transfer for the second semester. Assuming there was an opening, if someone transferred in for the start of second semester in a few weeks, they would be eligible to play at the conclusion of the finals period next December.

I tweeted Brian’s photo at HC Men’s Basketball. We’ll see if I get a response.

Bison, thanks for the explanation. In asking the question, I was thinking "eligible to play starting the first day of classes in the second semester". Is there such a rule pertaining to someone becoming eligible to play only when the second semester classes begin? Thanks!

I assume the rebounder would be of greatest interest at the moment. My daughter does a little bit of everything and could charitably be described as a “hubcap stealer” to borrow a phrase from RW.

To answer the original question in this thread - the new kid on the bench is a student trainer in a program through Springfield College.

Remember something like that when Blaney first came to HC...there was a guy in the gym playing with the varsity guys that was flat out lighting it up. ...turned out he played for Merrimack the year before and had just gotten cut by Cousy's Royals (or were they the Kings at that point). Coulda used that guy in that 9-17 year!

It’s not him but he looks a little like a smaller Mike Auger. Speaking of which, if we had an open scholarship, he’d be a great fit for what we need. He left the Penn team and school last year after his sophomore season when he was hampered by injuries and did not play much. The same report said he was planning to re-enroll this year at Penn but not return to basketball. Not sure if he did that or not. In school at Penn college hoop career over by his choice
