Felix back home

His mother got sick and he's gone back home to be with her. I believe it is the first time he's been back home since coming over to states.

St. John's will attempt to regain his redshirt for this season.

Best wishes to him and his mother.

Best wishes to him and his mother.

Hopefully he can get that redshirt back. If he can't I would assume it would make it tough for him to graduate without having to pay his own way since he is missing a semester and that would be a shame.

+2

prayers to him and his family

Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

This info is correct.  Felix is back home (left day of Dartmouth game)
Wonder what pull we will have to get him back on redshirt

He played what, like 10 minutes all season? I think he'll be given a redshirt. They do it for injuries all the time, I would think his mother being sick would be along the same lines.

hardship waiver

1) the injury/illness is a season-ending injury;
2) the injury/illness occurs prior to the completion of the first half of the season; and
3) the injury/illness occurs when the student-athlete has not participated in more than the greater of three contests/dates of competition or 30% of the team’s scheduled contests/dates of competition during the team’s traditional season. (Bylaw 4.2.4)

He meets 2 and 3.  Does family illness constitute season-ending injury? Or did Felix "re-aggravate" his preseason injury?

When I first read this, I thought you said " I wonder what we'll have to pull to get him back on redshirt". Actually I think that's the better question. We seem to have a team with unusually sick mothers.

Wish the best for him and his family.

His redshirt wouldn't be an issue if he just didn't have that one good pesky week of practice.

Best wishes to Felix and his family.  I hope the NCAA does what is right and grants him a waiver.  It's not like the kid's mom lives right down the street.

Nowhere does it list family member so I would say he is not eligible for redshirt due to mothers illness. Hardship waiver may be granted in that the hardship is for playing for a dumb a$$ crazy a$$ed coach!

It's one thing to criticize his coaching, it's another to throw around baseless rumors simply because you don't like him.

I guess I just don't understand why you'd joke about that.

Don't dislike Lavin but don't think he has treated Felix fairly this season, what with redshirting him for first 10 games, pulling the redshirt off him to start in one game than little to DNPCD in other games. Feel he has wasted a year of the kid's eligiblility so I made a joke at Lavin's expense. Sorry if I offended you.

Nevermind, I think I misinterpreted what you meant by the dollar signs. 

I'm not convinced having a sick mother is grounds for a redshirt. if he re aggravated an injury,that would be grounds for 1. And as unfair as it sounds wo a redshirt,he looses the year,Like Hooper did playing 1 game for Harvard. that said, I hope he gets it.
