So he will have gone 2 years without playing before he can get on the court. I do not understand the mentality behind the thoughts of some of these kids. Either stay or go Div 1AA. He can transfer back up to Div 1 after playing a year. A lot of rust can build over 2 years. Not that I would not want a BCS 3 star, but the kid is hurting himself in my opinion.

My bad on that but surely there is a division down there some where that he could go and play for a year and then come back to Division 1 is there not? Sitting for 2 years just seems wrong for a good athlete to do.
