Oliver Martin Updates: Dec 27: Will not play (Shoulder injury). Is 5th on Depth Chart.
- Thread starter Franisdaman
- Start date
Might be a stupid question, but is the NCAA required to make a decision on this before the season starts or is it possible that they could drag their feet a few weeks into the season?
Miami had a would be starter that hasn't had a ruling yet so the backup played against florida
Edit: I might have the teams flip flopped here idk completely remember
So weird. Just doesnt make any sense why there isnt more urgency in those situations.
Per the NCAA PDF on the waiver process...
"Transfer waiver requests are never considered urgent."
We have seen one more time that no one on the net really knows anything despite claims of knowing someone who knows, etc.
Unless you are Partyhawk420. He is the only poster who I'll will take his word for if OM is cleared before it's officially announced.
where is @PartyHawk420 ? we need his viewpoints right about now!
Well if Partyhawk see's him out Thursday night there or at FAC good indication he's not playing Saturday.
Appreciate the love guys but I’ve been refreshing the past 48 hours just like the rest of us. On a different post titled “I wish the NCAA would hurry the F up!” Or something I asked one of OM’s buddies and they said it was “Pretty much a done deal that he’d get immediate eligibility” but that was just through the grapevine so I’m not putting my neck out there on this one. My assumption is that he’ll be cleared to play but who knows
Why? Are you a cop? You have to tell him if you're a cop, or that's entrapment.can you please explain why you have "party" and "420" in your profile name?
Google is your friend...can you please explain why you have "party" and "420" in your profile name?
and besides, isn't it quite clear I coach basketball... and quite well, I might add.
Here's a new nugget to chew on: The Hawkeyes are preparing as if he'll be eligible.

Iowa Hawkeyes 'hope to hear something this week' on Oliver Martin

IOWA CITY, Ia. — Another media availability, another non-update on Oliver Martin's eligibility status.
The Hawkeyes are still waiting on a ruling about whether Martin will be immediately eligible, Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said at Tuesday's opening-week news conference. It's the same answer Ferentz provided when asked about the situation at media day Aug. 9.
"We hope to hear something this week," Ferentz said Tuesday.
By now, the eligibility details are known. Martin, the former Iowa City West and Michigan wide receiver, transferred to Iowa this summer and is petitioning for immediate eligibility. The Martin family has hired an attorney to help streamline the process.
"The biggest thing all of us would hope for is some consistency," Ferentz said regarding transfers.
The Hawkeyes are preparing as if he'll be eligible. From Iowa fans to those directly invested in the program, everyone is anxiously awaiting a ruling.
"If we get the green light, he'll be in there (Week 1)," Ferentz said.
But for now, the wait continues.

Yeah, it's a movie quote or something, idk.
@blockm2 two years ago you insisted you’d be around in a couple years to revisit Dawel Lugo. You haven’t posted on The Fort since November 2017, though.
I was banned by Borton. Sorry
Nobody had Sainristil passing Martin in the slot this spring. None. The only ones putting Sainristil to start in the spring were not comparing him to Martin. Martin practiced both slot and outside before transferring this spring.
Sorry if I missed it somewhere above, but any true/real insights on why Martin transferred? Was it just because his Michigan position coach left? I would think there has to be more to it because, to be fair, either way (if he stays at Michigan or goes to Iowa) he is getting a new position coach.
Iowa reporters asked Oliver these questions and he respectfully declined to comment.
So there has only been speculation on the reasons.
Thanks.
Coach departures is still a waiver criteria. I just don't know if it pertains to position and coordinators.
this whole transfer business is nuts. no wonder KF continually comments about ti.
remember when a grad transfer had to transfer to a school that offered a graduate degree that his current school did not offer? that's become a joke, too.
i wonder if Russell Wilson ever got that graduate degree from Wisconsin? LOL
SIAP but another Michigan transfer was just cleared to play this year for Tennessee:
