Message: [QUOTE="CocoHusky, post: 3123830, member: 5823"] I'm not sure why people are still tripping over this after all this time but I'll try one last time. The most important difference in the situations that must be understood is this: A significant consideration for the NCAA in the approval of the waiver is that the school from which the player is departing [B]must support the application for a waiver[/B]. That was a major consideration under the old process and remains a major consideration under the amended process that were put in place in April of 2018. This is just an educated guess on my part but Nebraska likely supported Shepard's waiver application. There was no way in hell that TN was going to support Cooper's application so she can go play for SC. That's the difference to focus on. The other major criteria under the new guidelines is "[I]due to circumstances beyond the control of the player[/I]" is an intentionally vague but extremely low bar to get a waiver approved. The NCAA approved 30 of 39 (77%) of requested waivers this past WCBB season. Message to player that intend to transfer. LEAVE ON GOOD TERM! [/QUOTE]
