I can't speak to the general student body, but know of players in multiple sports that have had classes from other in-state universities not transfer in. These weren't D's either which I'm fine with us not taking. If a kid can make a C or better at a sister institution in our system then it should always get accepted. I've heard of players coming from both Wake and Duke have classes rejected.bcoach wrote: ↑Tue Oct 11, 2022 2:08 pmIt should have absolutely nothing at all to do with the football program.

Perfect issue for Dale Jones to ask help from his close connections so it could benefit his job performance too.AppSt94 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 11, 2022 1:15 pmWe weren’t taking course credits earned from the previous institutions. So guys that were looking to transfer in were being asked to take classes again. Chase lost something like 30 credit hours when he transferred. I mean he has a degree from Clemson and took classes at Duke and he lost credits because they didn’t transfer. I mean I am all for academic integrity but WTF? He wasn’t trying to transfer African Studies classes from UNC.

Maybe they’re getting just a national-class education at those other schools. We only offer world-class.JTApps1 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 12, 2022 7:48 pmI can't speak to the general student body, but know of players in multiple sports that have had classes from other in-state universities not transfer in.
