RB Transfer Sampson James to Purdue

[Hoosierfan2017]

Nothing good to say about a player who transfers to our biggest rival and takes his playbook with him. He’ll fit in well up there.

So seems like with the new transfer rules it would be wise to transition playbooks to a digital platform that the kids lose access to when they are in the portal or after officially transferring

Can't be harm in doing that. Won't stop a motivated transferee from printing the thing the day before they walk out the door though.

True.  I would put it on a tablet that can’t connect to a printer myself but nothing stopping them from taking pictures I suppose.  
 

Still super shady of Purdue.  Not surprised in the least though. Brohm is getting desperate

There are ways to leverage technology to control who is capable of printing. Any idea if NDAs could be forced on players in a situation like this? A little bit more up your ally.

My first blush is that they could be, but it would be a major recruiting joy kill, and the attempted civil penalty enforcement of a violation of an NDA would be the ultimate negative recruiting publicity event.

Sampson needs IU to sign off or he has to sit this year….if this is true, he better be sitting

Not sure that's how it works. More to do with the NCAA evaluating the situation which is a joke these days rather than IU. I'd be shocked if he's not eligible.

Last game of the season against your biggest rival, likely with bowl placement on the line, who are you taking? The one guy in the backfield who used to play for the other side, or the 11 guys on the other side of the ball looking at a guy in the backfield they know bolted for their biggest rival and tried to undermine them by taking the playbook with him?

An RB4 on a top bowl eligible team(IU) going to be a possible RB1/RB2 on a toilet bowl team likely to lose their HC in the coming years.  Best of luck kid but cmon.  

 

Iron sharpens Iron and it would appear he lost out.

I was told he transferred too late to qualify for instant eligibility so he needs an NCAA waiver, and the only way to get it is with IU’s sign off. I don’t have a way to confirm that though

He definitely missed the transfer deadline and needs an NCAA waiver. Idk if IU has to sign off on it though.

If IU has to sign off and doesn’t it will create a recruiting mess. 
Regardless of the playbook situation (if there even is one), it would absolutely be used against them.

If that's true, the best case would be for the NCAA to decline his waiver and make him sit -- as it should IMO. That way, we could wash our hands of it and say it wasn't our decision.

Man Lamar, you ought to get a gig as a stand-up comedian.  The NCAA delining a waiver is about the funniest thing I've heard this year.  As Jon Rothstein likes to say:  "The NCAA continues to hand out waivers like they're seedless watermelon at a 4th of July Party."

No clue if Sampson was cleared to play but if he was, he’s clearly RB4 at Purdue. Meanwhile we’re playing walk ons in key situations

Im not sure that we had a “key situation” today.

Impactful?

He barely had time to unpack his bags.

Purdue RB Sampson James has re-entered the transfer portal. James transferred to Purdue from Indiana. He was a high school recruit.

[Hovadipo]

Tough look there. His family does him no favors.
