The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

He was involved with the Alston case, with the O'Bannon case.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

So, I mean, the fact that he is involved makes you think that they feel like, you know what, maybe we can –

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

even if it's just on the technicality, find a way around this.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

But, you know, for me, like, again, based on what we've heard, based on how definitive the data seems to be, I would be pretty surprised if he ends up playing college football this fall.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

Yeah, so of course, this is the first year that there is no post-spring transfer window.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

That's obviously a big deal for this program that they can't go out and get another Division I quarterback.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

The Division II portal is still open technically through June 1st.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

That is an option that's available to them, although it's obviously running out only about three weeks left.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

But the other thing, too, is that they do have guys on campus that they feel all right about, right?

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

The big one is Will Hammond, who is a redshirt sophomore for them.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

He was the one who came off the bench against Utah, played really well, helped lead them to a win.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

And honestly, if he doesn't tear his ACL at the end of October –

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

I don't think that they spend $5 million on a quarterback.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

I think that they may be bringing a guy to compete with him, but I think that Will Hammond very well might have been their guy.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

The issue is he might not be ready for week one.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

He might not come back until week three or four.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

And, you know, so the question is, are you able to and willing to wait?

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

They also brought in a couple of other players.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

They've got a quarterback in Lloyd Jones, who was a red shirting player last year for them who came off the bench.

The Program
H4 N2K, Shehan Jeyarajah, The Kicker

They brought in a player, Kirk Francis, a former walk-on from Tulsa who started 10 games for them.
