I've seen him. He is phenomenally athletic for his size and has great potential as a shot-blocker, alley-ooper, offensive rebounder, etc. With a year of good coaching, he could become a star for SMU.
Do the women still play at Carmichael? Or did they tear it down?
The Carolina women do still play at me.
Oh, and Faye was a freshman last year. He should have 2.5 years of eligibility.
I agree with Car Michael. I am from Atlanta and my buddy has season tickets to the Jackets games, so I saw Faye first hand. I think that if puts on some weight that he could be a stud for SMU. He looked overmatched in the ACC, and I think this is not only a great decision for him for but the Ponies as well.
I look forward to seeing him in conference play next year, and I hope he is at the game tonight
Wrong. He was a redhsirt freshman last season and must now sit out an academic year before being able to play for us. He has 1.5 to play.
So a redshirt year doesn't reduce eligibility, and a sitting-out transfer year doesn't reduce it either, but you are saying that the combination does? I hadn't heard of that.
The rule states that the moment you set foot on a college campus your 5-year clock starts ticking. From that point you have 5 years to complete 4 seasons of eligibility. The only way to extend the clock is if you get a medical redshirt (or if I am not mistaken BYU players can go on missions, freezing their clock while they are away on their mission). Since Faye enrolled at Georgia Tech in Fall 2005, he has until the Spring of 2010 to complete his eligibility. Had he not sat out the first year, he would still have his redshirt to protect himself from simply giving away a year of eligibility due to transfering.
Is this a sarcastic comment or are you at all familiar with college athletics? He has 1.5 to play. It has been explained numerous times now. If you can figure it out, I am sorry for you.
not true. hell, there's a guy who's in his 50s who went back to school this year and played on the football team. Can't recall what school, but it's in TX. Ok this is getting ridiculous...I agree with Dutch on THIS ONE POST by him totally
Division II rules do not apply to DIA
[quote="Stallion"]I saw that he was 22 years old-which is a tad unusual for a kid who will be a Junior next year[/quote]
It's not unusual amongst the foriegn born players. Look at Dia and Kwiatkowski's bios, and check their birth dates. With the foriegn players, there is also often some speculation that they are actually older than the age on their birth records. Try not to choke on the Kool-Aid.

Sitting out a year after transferring does reduce eligibility. Class of '02
