You know they were never able to get him in right?

Might be why he said "not so much."

But you cant pay a post graduate kid and still have him eligible right? That would only apply to the HWC/NLWC. I am talking about post grad transfers that are immediately eligible to compete in NCAA competition. There are a few hoops to jump through but my understanding is you have to have athletic eligibility left and graduated on time or early, then the school you are transferring from must not have that same post grad program as the one you are going to.

I am not sure how many programs have Post grad dentist programs but Iowa may need more stud wrestler who want to be dentists in 4 yrs.

Hypothetically If Willie Miklus graduated this spring from Mizzou and they didn't have a grad program that Iowa did, correct me if I am wrong but he could be in Iowa's lineup at 197 next season. As I believe he only used one RS and the OTC didn't start his clock right away. He would have one season left in free agency so to speak.

I think the post grad tranfer rule used to be that you were transferring to get in a grad program either not offered or you were denied acceptance by the school you graduated from. I believe that rule was simplified to any grad program even if offered by the original school and you no longer have to prove you couldn't get accepted.
