College football bowl thread: Pop-Tarts Muzik

Favre's kid committed to Fresno State. Red Wavers, open future mails carefully and account for every penny going to football.
 
The NCAA issued a statement Friday saying that "NCAA rules do not prevent a student-athlete from unenrolling from an institution, enrolling at a new institution and competing immediately."


Unless I've missed it, how long before a player leaves a school-team after the second or third game and enrolls at another one and begins playing? I haven't kept up with every subsection bylaw reg, though, so perhaps that's not permitted during a season.

But I'd guess an attorney could say the NCAA's statement doesn't have any qualifers, so his player-client would be able to leave Big Tech and move over to State U to begin playing immediately. The only hangup would be, perhaps, the university's semester enrollment deadline dates.
 
The tricky part is getting accepted by a new school mid-semester. Ah heck, who am I kidding? Any jock worth their salt will be welcomed with open arms.
