Hope AZDuck has some more vactaion time left for investigative work

NOGAF about what classes Vernon Adams is taking at EWU

He needs to pass said class to graduate and become a graduate transfer. HTH.

IDGAF either, just pointing out a jock still taking a Math class the last quarter of his senior year is probably a sign he's kicked that graduation requirement down the road as long as he possibly could.

Not the case.

If he makes it into UO this summer (monumental task) - he will have an immediate impact on the team and its W-L record this fall.

As someone who only cares about winning, clearly you can recognize that Adams is not winning you a championship, so wgaf. Sorry, but he's too scrawny to hold up against the big boys, that Oregon knows all too well isn't UCLA, Stanford, or fucking Arizona for that matter.
 
He walked through graduation today and is scheduled to be in Oregon on Monday. . Final grades are posted next week. His Math One class grade is key. His first UO "class" is June 22. Presumably his extensive grasp in mathematical concepts will help as he tackles Statistical Methods in "grad school".

Who here actually thought he wouldn't graduate? It's Eastern for Christ's sake.

We also would have accepted, "Like sand in the hourglass, these are the days of our lives."
 
He did not graduate. Adams: "I have to pass two more math tests." He is in Eugene but an arithmetic vapor trail followed him from Cheney.
 
Spokesman Review article says he still has math tests to make up and "paperwork"

Too lazy to link

Serious question though:
Would a 5th year grad transfer in football ever have to attend a class. The one and done's for basketball usually take 1 quarter of class and then are eligible for the season and never step into a classroom again.

For football, wouldn't a player be able to enroll for their classes and then never actually show up if their plan is to leave right after the season?
 
HOLLY ROWE, TRUE?!?!?!

But srsly

Here's what happened.

Adams probably never went to a math class during his four years in Cheney. When he learned about the graduate transfer rule from his high school coach (who apparently was the initial brainchild of the whole scheme) he figured that EWU would continue to let him pass classes he wasn't going to.

Then he announced his transfer and all the hoopla, and EWU started treating him like a regular student, who, as @Cougzz showed us, fail their math classes.

He gave it the old college try - and didn't quite make it. Phone calls probably happened, someone at Oregon spent some time figuring out how to get him a conditional acceptance to the sports management program, predicated on him passing his math classes at UO during the summer and transferring the credits to EWU.

Some oriental kid in this building will start tutoring, erm, taking math tests for Adams on Monday.

And Adams will participate in "voluntary" summer drills, get his EWU degree at the end of summer term, and participate in fall camp, and most likely will beat out Jeff Lockie for the starting job.

Oregon is still serious about football.

My sources are hearing such a player would be academically ineligible for bowel season.

That about sums up the conditional acceptance. If there wasn't anything left to do Helfrich wouldn't have used the "I don't expect any hiccups" line. The fact that this line is being thrown out there is telling me that Oregon is doing something behind the scenes to help make Adams eligible. If Adams already had his credits and passed his necessary classes, then he would have already been registered.
