I was thinking about this the other day. Wells has to be so relieved the

I met Joe when he came down to Houston for the Fan Fest.

I hope the blessing in all of this is that he beefs up during his RS

He's a big dude for sure - big frame. What was he looking to play? TE?

BlackBart

yes, TE.

Joe served in my son's mission in Texas Houston East. My son knew him, but not well.

Love that mission

My son is still there, but finishes in 25 days.

It's been 10 years since I've been there, but love the people down there

Wells doesn't care about the future at USU. Win this year or he's gone.

Uggg.. please let this die... Its cut and dry..

Fine. Not Wells' fault. It's USU as an institution that is dumb.

fattycoug

Sounds like its a policy that will be outlawed by the NCAA later this year.

PJMort

8/18/17 2:26pm

Just because it's USU policy doesn't make it good policy. That's

nslcougar

Just because its a bad policy for BYU does not mean its a bad policy for USU

cwilke1

8/18/17 2:35pm

Yes, it does

CNN is Fake News

8/18/17 2:54pm

It's a bad policy for the players

fattycoug

8/18/17 5:25pm

This makes the entire situation WORSE. So now it's not Wells' fault it's USU's

Kajdin

8/18/17 2:28pm

You think USU is the only institution who does this? You think players should

Cougarfan777

8/18/17 2:32pm

Totally different situation entirely

ManicBlue

Coaches can change schools anytime they want.

8/18/17 2:57pm

This is perfect.

the bigger question is how will this damage the relationship between BYU and USU

Nat Gas Man

8/18/17 2:35pm

Answer me this...

TheLost

8/18/17 2:38pm

The issue isn't making Joe sit out a year. That's accepted, it would be nice if

Kajdin

their goal is a deterrent effect for their other athletes, not to teach this

Wrong, Wrong, Wrong...

isn't any contract not completed after two years with no input from either party

Nat Gas Man

8/18/17 2:44pm

The NLI is valid for 4 years... or until satisfied.

TheLost

8/18/17 4:01pm

but can be appealed directly to the NCAA and bypass USU altogether

Nat Gas Man

8/18/17 4:11pm

The NCAA won't do anything..

TheLost

As if you know what his reasoning is

ManicBlue

8/18/17 4:33pm

RE: As if you know what his reasoning is

TheLost

8/18/17 4:43pm

Just because the NCAA allows coaches/schools to not release players that don't

ManicBlue

8/18/17 6:52pm

Well, they collectively are idiots and will be held accountable in the Poly

Big Daddy D

8/18/17 3:33pm

Did Gary Anderson release Christian Folau?

TheLost

8/18/17 2:22pm

BYU does release players who want to transfer to USU

8/18/17 3:02pm

Not my point..

Who cares if he's not making a fuss. It's wrong to do

fattycoug

not 100% sure but I think yes

warp
