I didn't see this posted yet, but they were talking during the SIU/Drake game about Roundtree and Cornelius have left the program.

Re: SIU Losing a Few Players
I wonder if Roundtree will end up @ Illinois State. I know they were recruiting him hard last year.Originally posted by TH1974 -
Re: SIU Losing a Few Players
I think if this was the case, he would have to sit 2 years, and with him leaving at the semester, that would be a long wait (inter conference transfers have to sit 2 years I believe). I expect Roundtree to go the JC route for the next 1.5 years and then go to a D1 school. Just my gut feeling. It sounds like he has a tough home life (or so C-Lo's comments have insinuated that).The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.Comment

Re: SIU Losing a Few Players
Does the Valley have it's own rule about sitting out two years if transferring to another Valley school, because I don't think that's an NCAA rule? 4 year school to 4 year school is one academic year.Comment

Re: SIU Losing a Few Players
Yeah, I don't know that I've heard that two year rule before either. I know in the Big 10, they can't go on scholarship if they transfer within conference, but it's only the one-year NCAA mandated sit-out.Originally posted by jman2004 View PostComment

Re: SIU Losing a Few Players
First I have heard of the 2 year idea also?!
The loss of these players who didnt see time, if I rememebr right, when we were down there just seperates the top and bottom halves of the conference. Hopefully we stay above the line where we belong. It wont be a huge loss to SIU, but enough of a headache for a few weeks.Comment

Re: SIU Losing a Few Players
I think conferences have the authority to create their own rules and guidelines to go along with the NCAA one-academic-year standard, I just didn't know if the Valley had or not.Originally posted by Da Hog View Post
Or if I was dreaming and the NCAA standard is really 2 academic years? I didn't think so though.Comment

I'll try to find out.The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.

Re: SIU Losing a Few Players
If a player transfers from one Division I school to another, he must sit out one year before he is again eligible, and sometimes two years if the player transfers within a certain conference. The Missouri Valley is one of those under "the certain conference" category. It was a rule passed seven to eight years ago, I believe.Comment
