Gets waiver from NCAA... Can play this year! I think its BS. If he was hurt by the racism at UGA why the heck did he stay the rest of the year????????

Exactly what I was going to post. I think everyone seen that coming but boy did they just open Pandora's box

He was quoted saying racism had nothing to do with the move. I sure hope UTs two transfers get approved to play immediately

Winner!!! And why did he stay all season? If it had nothing to do with it then why did he apply with that reason??

It's a political hot button issue that no one wants to touch, much less the inept NCAA. I'm glad that Fields released a statement saying that UGA did not fail to provide an environment of diversity, and that he doesn't hold ill feelings towards the university, so at least he wasn't dragging them through the mud (overtly).

Transfers are quickly becoming free agency, and I have mixed emotions about it. In this case, Fields was an awesome raw talent that couldn't beat out the incumbent, had a hard time picking up the playbook and making right decisions with the football (which may have improved with time if he would have stayed and had good work ethic/study habits), and seemed to have a sense of entitlement, so I grew tired of the distractions towards the end of his tenure. I wish that he would have stayed, but since he is gone I won't be heartbroken. I'm hoping that UGA won't need a backup QB this season, and that the new roster additions step up and progress and are ready if needed.

From my understanding he played the racism card to get eligible THEN after he was cleared he said racism had nothing to do with it

Exactly what happened..: if it had nothing to do with racism then why didn't he have to sit out? He played over the 4 game max rule. It's all BS

He should have had to sit out. If that's how they are going to do things now, I wonder if Solomon and Gibbs will be granted eligibility?

All they need to do is use the race card and I really don't see how they could deny them.
