Miami is taking a risk by signing Griffin now. If he doesn’t qualify, they won’t be able to use this scholarship for an early enrollee next year.

Bryan, I don't understand how signing a NLI and then not qualifying for enrollment effects their EE numbers for next year. If he doesn't enroll, he doesn't sign a scholarship and EE numbers are based on the 25 limit for first time scholarships in an academic year while staying under the 85 max scholarship limit, not the number of NLIs signed... right?

Bryan, that was quite a miserable weather day in Tuscaloosa in 2000! I've only been colder at one AU game ever --- 1993 at Arkansas sitting in the snow-covered bleachers while Reid McMillion led the Tigers to a win.
Great piece, old friend! Take care of those allergies! WDE!

I spent most of the morning getting tested at the Allergy Clinic here in Auburn where I found out I have pretty severe allergies to grass pollen along with some trees and weeds.
My seasonal allergies started shortly after I turned 30 and progressively got worse. I’ve been pretty miserable for two months in the spring and three weeks in the fall for 7-8 years now.
I’ll begin taking allergy shots a week from Friday and if all goes well, I could be essentially allergy free within a year. Why I waited this long to see a doctor and get treatment? I don’t know. Probably too stubborn. But I’m glad I finally did and I’m looking forward to attending a baseball game or watching my daughter play soccer this spring without feeling miserable.....

I had grass and tree pollen allergies all my life (sinus problems and severe asthma). I ended up taking the shots about 20 years ago (in my late 30s) and have had very few problems in the years since. I think I took the shots for about 3 years.
Good luck.

Well, I was actually citing an SEC rule. I don't know if the ACC is the same. In the SEC, if you sign 20, you have five that can roll over into early enrollees next class. If you sign 20 and 18 qualify, you can still just have 5 to use for EE's.

Great Article Philip. What a wonderful living definition of a "team-mate" -- "Johnson said he didn’t want the ball and asked the coaches to let Leard, a native of Hartwell, Ga., score the winning touchdown." That's a true Auburn Tiger!
All Auburn All the Time!

.....Leard was pretty danged automatic on the QB sneak. He was 6'-5" or so, and could just lean over and get the first down. It was a wise decision by Rudi. Deep handoffs on short yardage often blow up.

Wouldn't be surprised. Right now, the number is around 18-20 but it always goes up.
