[QUOTE="UofIChE06, post: 1172751, member: 9264"] Not necessarily. If the thought is he would have to sit the first semester of next year anyway (which is entirely possible given the NCAA), it might not be a very big deal for Nichols to start his tenure as a scholarship athlete in the fall. The difference between him and ET is ceiling. Gaining that extra half semester could mean a good deal for a player like Nichols when he is a SR. You don't envision that with ET as he has a good bit of pro potential so only playing 3 years instead of 4 is less likely of a hindrance for his future earnings potential. Under this scenario Nichols sits all of 2016-2017 and starts essentially as a RS Fr in 2017-18. A lot of time not playing competitive ball for Nichols but may be best for his future. [/QUOTE]
