Pending a waiver yes.Trusted sources tell me when the 2nd semester begins, Downey will join the team.
With PD 3 it seems there's always something more to it... best bet is to just assume he'll never wrestle in a Hawkeye singlet and if by chance he does eventually it will be a nice bonus.What's old, the waiting? When second semester starts he can wear the black and gold if he is enrolled. I don't think there's much more to it. You'll have your answer soon enough. But complaining isn't going to help.
I'm hoping Oklahoma St dual. If he is in I think we win that dual and I would like a little payback for last year.Close of winter classes - JAN 12th
Okie State Dual - JAN 14th
Martin Luther King Convocation - JAN 15th
Opening day of Classes - JAN 16th
Seems best case scenario hes in for Okie state, but it is cutting it very close for the start of classes, though the winter session will have officially ended by then.
Worst case, he's in for tOSU on Jan 21st.
Pending a waiver yes.
He went from D1 to IA Central, back to D1. This triggers a waiver requirement for eligibility apparently.Pending a waiver yes.
If he meets the one time transfer rule (which means Nebraska waived him), then no. But this is such a hot ****ing mess because of Iowa Central, who knows.

I think it's the NCAA has to clear him.He went from D1 to IA Central, back to D1. This triggers a waiver requirement for eligibility apparently.
The hot ****ing mess I referred to. So ISU has to clear him? He had a letter he had posted on twitter last spring but he clears his account frequently.
Enlighten us all on the waiver please.You are cluelessNCAA has to clear him.
You said, "he went from d1 to ia central to d1." You realize he wrestled at d1 iowa state last year? Like has been said multiple times, once he's accepted (which he has been) and semester resumes he's good to go. It's that simple.Enlighten us all on the waiver please.
i just wanna know if he can wrestle against oklahoma st on the 14th?You said, "he went from d1 to ia central to d1." You realize he wrestled at d1 iowa state last year? Like has been said multiple times, once he's accepted (which he has been) and semester resumes he's good to go. It's that simple.
Yes, hence the D1 reference and it's not that simple.You said, "he went from d1 to ia central to d1." You realize he wrestled at d1 iowa state last year?

I don't know for sure.Yes, hence the D1 reference and it's not that simple.
& did he transfer from Nebraska or was he released? God, I'm glad I don't work in a compliance office.
Reading NCAA rules and regs takes a team of lawyers who still most likely will not all agree. I’m not a lawyer so no reason to think I have an answer but,,,,,,as I understand it going from Nebraska to IA Central and then from IA Central was not transferring to or from a D1 institution. Plus IA State dismissed him so his scholarship was no longer active. If all that is actually the case all that would need to take place for Downey to be eligible is:
1) Graduate from a DI institution.
2) Take and get an acceptble score on his GRE
3) Get accepted to a graduate program at Iowa
4) Have our compliance office give their OK.
Of all the above the biggest obstacle could be our compliance office. Pretty sure the first three have been accomplished.
You're clueless if you think he is clueless.You are clueless
Well, i know exactly what the situation is. So call me clueless if it makes you feel better. Information from people in the program is "probably" more reliable than some of you goons digging up nothing. Like many have said, wait a little bit.You're clueless if you think he is clueless.
Goons? I don't know your source, nor do I even know if I believe you.Well, i know exactly what the situation is. So call me clueless if it makes you feel better.
