UGA QB Fields to Ohio State

Post by greenyellow »

Former 5* and UGA QB Justin Fields is transferring to Ohio State, meaning Oregon will likely be seeing him in 2020.

I was reading earlier today about Fields hiring an Atlanta attorney to represent him to make the case that he should be allowed a hardship waiver and able to play immediately at Ohio State. The argument they will use for the hardship is that Fields, who also plays baseball, has beem harmed by the use of racial slurs a Georgia baseball player reportedly used last spring.

To speak frankly, that’s a bunch of bullshit. While that could be a reasonable issue to warrant transferring, everyone on earth knows he’s transferring because he didn’t win the QB1 spot. This is making a mockery of the rules that are in place.

Agreed but with today’s climate, good luck being the lawyer for the NCAA that denies that claim.

Yep. After years of pissing and moaning about the NCAAs penalties, the NCAA cant even hold up its mandate of maintaining fair competition.
