    No, Pete will give scholarships to try hard walk ons, and they will be our starting LB corp for the next 3 years. HTH.

    I know your joking but I don't think you are wrong. Jeff is basically bigger faster stronger blacker BBK. Probably would have a bunch of offers if he wasn't from alaska and his name wasn't Jeff.

    who?
    Edefuan "Jeff" Ulofoshio. He's not faster than BBK and barely any bigger, but he's really nice for a walk-on. BBK would also be a really nice walk-on, but unfortunately he's a starter for us.

    Also, Jeff went to Bishop Gorman, so saying he didn't get offers because he's from Alaska is wildly misleading. Also his name isn't Jeff it's Edefuan.

    I've stood next to both of them. I'm probably bigger then BBK and noticably smaller then Jeff.

    Spent his first 8 years playing football in alaska. Played 3 years at bishop Gorman took 2 years to adjust to competitive football and only played a full year as a senior. If you don't see how being from Alaska is a disadvantage, I cant help you.

    Good thing he changed his name after enrolling or we would have never got him.

    I recall hearing CP say the program "honors" the scholarships of medical retirees. So do med. retirements really open up a scholyt if the retiree is still enrolled in school? Or do the scholarships for med retirees come from a different scholarship pool?

    PAC-12 made some rule that made school honor medical retirement, without hitting the scholarship limit. Where the money comes from, no fucking idea

    Its an NCAA rule that medical exemptions aren't "counters" towards the scholarship limits.

    The Pac 12 may have mandated that schools cover these scholarships but I've never heard of a school that doesn't pay for scholarships under the medical exemption rule.

    Its a big tool for the Sabans of the world. You can push dead wood out and they still get the educstion benefits.
