Again, the course he needed to pass was completed. This much we know. Also straight from the NCAA.org PDF:

Once a player signs an LOI, he cannot be recruited by any other schools and he is obligated to attend the school he signs with. If he doesn't enroll, he can't enroll anywhere else without first sitting out a year. If he enrolls at another school which recruited him, he has to sit out another year as well under NCAA regs (and this is in addition to the one year NCAA penalty for transfer).

In other words, a player who signs an LOI had better be sure he wants to attend that school because that's where he's going to attend unless the school decides to let him out of his LOI by granting a release.

EXACTLY

Which is why the only school is grant a release to was Nevada to satisfy the whole “family reasons” angle. Any other school at this point is BS and tied to Pops getting paid.

maybe he failed the class? lol who knows

went to great lengths to go to uw when bama sc byu didnt req that class

strange all around

Yea, could be that simple. Doesn't seem to really add up from that angle either. If it was as simple as that ask for your release and go to Bama or SC. A family member (while asking for anonymity) went to both the local and Seattle media and leaked the story. They wanted that info out there. Why not just say he didn't get in if that is the story or wait to get your release, which Pete would have to do regardless? Seems like it would be easier to go to a school not named BYU or Nevada in that case.

I don't think we're dealing with the top of the academic society here. There likely wasn't much forethought put in to the story or leak.

At the end of the day, if the dude really wants to go elsewhere, or his dad is going to be such a pain that he's not happy at UW anyway then just move on. He can join tate martell as the most likely to never crack the 2-deep on any roster, transfer 3 times and all end up back in Nevada

I don't know if I buy the angle really but for the record Reno's education system is absolute dreck. Like worse than Alabama type bad. If I remember correctly they had the highest rate of illiteracy for a long time and were consistently ranked the worst in the nation. From my own experience I have quite a few adult friends from there and their academis abilities are usually on par with an average middle schooler(at best). I can only imagine if you are a star football player the kind of turnstile your classes could have been if they needed to help along your eligibility.
