No, not IMO. If you've never had an issue passing courses and opt to try and enroll early and in doing so are unable to complete 1 of the required courses then no, I don't think that labels you as someone who has "academic issues".

Well, it was an academic issue (not an injury or a recruiting impropriety or a character/criminal matter) that kept him off of the court as a true freshman. If he's not having them now then I think Turner's less likely to transfer (because he's burned that RS).

It was a clearinghouse issue and not an acedmic one IMO.

Cause/effect. If he reclassified and the credits are challenged, IMO, that's an academic issue.

In a broad sense sure, but not in the way that you are trying to insinuate by saying he may have no choice but to leave the University of Tennessee because of academic issues.

Not what I said or insinuated. I said that I don't think that he will transfer unless he still has academic issues. If he has academic issues then the burned RS is moot. If he has no academic issues then the burned RS created a reason to not transfer.

So explain this reclassification problem to me. He was supposed to enter in the fall of 2015 as an 18 year old. But he decides to reclassify and enter college as a 19 year old in the fall of 2016. Then he decides to revert back to entering school in 2015 as an 18 year old but his coursework is flagged for too many courses being taken or something? What am I not seeing here?

Again, I didn't say he has academic issues and will be transferring. I said if he doesn't have any, why would he want to transfer? He's already burned his RS and would lose a year on the court. Plus he played a lot of minutes in a P-5 as a freshman even though he wasn't performing at an ultra high level.

Mark Griffin said that Turner is going to leave, not me.

Didn't even read it. Not gonna try and explain to you why you're wrong. Everyone else can waste their breath.

You can't because I'm not. Seems quite simple... Turner didn't get to play as a true freshman since his academics weren't in order. Go ahead and duck the question if you're afraid.

Reminiscent of the whole medical redshirt conversation, everyone else is wrong and Thunder is right.

So you're in the camp that it's wrong terminology to state that there were academic issues causing a player to lose his redshirt year when the NCAA challenges credits... Dooley noted. Do you understand that "academic issues" covers things other than flunking out?

I'm calling the lost redshirt an academic issue. Replying to snarky posts digging at me is saying everyone else is wrong? Get a grip.

Again, bringing up academic issues for why a player may have to leave the school is saying he couldn't make the grades, far different from a player being flagged by NCAA clearinghouse for missing a credit.

Turner has never been suspended in his 2 years so seems to me he's not had issues remaining academically eligible, if Turner leaves because of an "academic issue" it's pretty clear what occurred.

I didn't say he has academic issues. I said that academic issues resulted in his losing a redshirt. I said I don't think he'll transfer unless there are academic issues. That's different from saying he's leaving because of academic issues.

I guess an athlete in good academic standing without a RS could end up transferring if he has flunked too many piss tests. I guess you're now going to say that I've insinuated that the athlete shoots heroin into his eyeballs.

You said he might transfer if he still had academic issues. His issue had nothing to do with not being able to pass classes or poor performance in the classroom. So, what did you mean when said "still has academic issues?"

You said, "MG also thinks KP and LT will leave. I'm not so sure about Turner with his burned RS UNLESS he's still having academic issues (which kept him off of the court as a freshman)."

Leave, which means transfer.

I did not say he has academic issues and is leaving. I said IF HE LEAVES it will be because of academic issues... he's burned his redshirt therefore I do not think he is going to leave unless he is forced to leave.
