I think they could talk to him if BYU coaches okayed it, right?
If you want to transfer to a school, that school has to get permission from the first school before they talk. Maybe Utah had permission.

Francis Bernard?

Won't he have to sit out another year if he did?

Will he graduate from BYU this year? Seems unlikely....

There is a way it could happen without him sitting another year.

So, he wants to sit out yet another year after this one? Would be a dumb move.

Maybe he thinks he can get a waiver.

I imagine Kyle thinks he can get him one.

I would blame him for wanting to sit out his junior year just to still transfer. But that's me.

Why do you say Kalani wouldn't release him? That's speculation.

Francis didn't ask for a transfer before the season started. Go spread fake news on your team's website.

I don't think he would have to sit out a year, because he is this year.

Does the NCAA really care if he's redshirting or not?

no. but he may be able to get a waiver IMO.
