Looks like the answer is up to each school which mostly applies to BU, Lehigh and Loyola grad schools this year for seniors. Interesting that transfers count against the 12.6 cap. Will make it tough this year but coaches may keep scholarship space for transfers in the future three classes.

Re: Patriot League 2020
No way to know but curious how BU chopped up its capacity this year, have to assume Gray paid less to attend BU than I’ve paid to become a member at bar/clubs in Utah. They graduated one or two other studs from last year so would it be shocking if they didn’t even fully fill the 12.6 this year? Or does it get spent like a budget allocation you know you can’t roll over.
Thinking they might’ve had a little capacity going in and could be in shopping mode. I’d hate to see him go but Eric Holden at Hobart who’s in the portal (and should’ve been an AA HM anyway this year) is from Sudbury and was whatever ESPNs Mr Boston as a junior. BU already got Jack Wilson from us so really we’re owed somebody but still you could see that fit.

Re: Patriot League 2020
From Terry Foy on Twitter - Brass tacks here: Army & Navy obviously can’t have grad students, most other members don’t have grad offerings that would allow spring athletes to return. I’m told Loyola, Boston U & Lehigh will aim to accommodate their spring athletes looking for another year. https://twitter.com/TerenceFoy/status/1 ... 9478907904Farfromgeneva wrote: ↑Sat Apr 04, 2020 10:12 pm Thinking they might’ve had a little capacity going in and could be in shopping mode.
I still don't think that grad transfers are an option for BU, Loyola, Lehigh per PL rules, but the guys on who were on those teams in 2020 will have the opportunity to play five years for those schools.

Re: Patriot League 2020
Ah wasn’t aware there was a PL prohibition in grad transfers.
To my prior comment it’s not like kids have to come “home” for that either but big city, known area, good school to just fill a grad degree to get that last year of a sport so had me wondering with Gray leaving if they had capacity to throw a 1/3 or half at a kid like that.

Re: Patriot League 2020
Yeah, if grad transfers were allowed BU would've done quite well attracting fifth year guys over the next few seasons for the reasons you mentioned.

Re: Patriot League 2020
Loyola had a good track record of getting grad transfers before joining the PL too. They got a few from the Ivy and ACC of my memory serves me.
Re: Patriot League 2020
While there are no grad transfers allowed, there doesn't seem to be an eight semester rule like the Ivies. If the ACC/Big Ten gets really log jammed with talent, I wonder if the Patriot League could get guys who leave those program early to essentially reclass and transfer.
Theoretical example: let's say a kid was a top 100 recruit and a freshman at Maryland this year. With the 5th year guys who return and freshmen that arrive, his path to playing time looks much longer and cloudier after fall ball. Could he enter the portal next spring, and then transfer to Bucknell in the fall of 2021 and use three years there to finish undergraduate work and play? I don't see why not, and it seems like there will be a lot of highly recruited guys caught in a numbers game at top 10 schools. PL could be a great option for those guys.

Re: Patriot League 2020
PL with some guidelines for fall sports:
Student-athletes will return to campus at the same time as other students;
Patriot League competition will begin at the end of September, with the expectation that League play will be completed prior to Thanksgiving;
Non-League competition will not begin prior to Friday, Sept. 4;
Patriot League member institutions will confirm that non-League competitors are following comparable health and safety protocols in advance of any contest; and,
No Patriot League teams will fly to competitions and, with rare exceptions, regular-season competition will exclude overnight travel.

Re: Patriot League 2020
From my experience in Patriot League Army and Navy will be just fine.
It seemed they always had depth and could run line after line with what seemed better than average abilities and seemingly equal ability if not more than opponents lines on field.
It appeared at time to be up to defense and goalies to make the game difference.
Heck it seemed most of those kids have done more by 8 AM than some kids on opposition will do all day.

I am very optimistic that Navy will be highly competitive. I have seen first hand the dynamic change in optimism, practices, player engagement, off field enthusiasm, details of teaching, and overall general concern and friendship w/the players....which was handled a bit differetnly prior.
I also recently saw a post where the Navy players picked their captains for this coming season....two very talented players. If not mistaken, neither was in the top 100 for the class of 2016, and yet, both are highly skilled and dominant in their respective positions. When I read the article announcing the selection, it noted the offensive player would have broke Navy records as a junior and has started since a freshman and the defensive player earned the team MVP award.
