My kid actually got the waiver, it was the midseason transfer that we couldn't get around. I'm just not sure what his options were. Stay for the spring semester, and do what? Show up for practice for a team where the coach wants your scholarship money and you denied it. Yeah, that'd be fun. And then what, if the wavier were denied you're sitting out the next year and really screwed. I just don't get the "no exceptions" BS. How hard is it to look at a situation, realize a kid was put in a difficult position, and rule accordingly.
