I expect Stepp to be eligible. The NCAA is kind of painted into a corner this year. They can’t possibly evaluate all 1500 transfers. They’re going to have to bite the bullet and grant waivers this year imo.
That would be the intelligent thing to do, but when was the last time you saw the NCAA do anything intelligent? I still don't truly understand why they decided not to vote on the one free transfer rule change that was expected to pass this month. If they lose the appeal being heard by SCOTUS this spring all the rules are out the window anyway. Why introduce chaos by letting everybody believe a rule would pass and then decide not to vote on it at the last minute?? The letter they received from the DOJ seems like an excuse for inaction.
