Ole Miss and Jeremiah Masoli denied by the NCAA

NCAA denies former Oregon QB and presumed current Ole Miss QB Jeremiah Masoli a waver to play immediately for the Rebels. Jeremiah was hoping to not have to sit out due to a semi-loop hole in the NCAA transfer rules. The NCAA will allow a student-athlete who has graduated undergrad to transfer and play immediately at a new school, if the new school offers a post grad degree program that was not offered by the school where the undergrad course work was done. Sense Jeremiah was kicked out of Oregon, he had to find a school that offered such a situation so that he could avoid the mandatory 1 year transfer sit-out rule, which explains how the American Samoan found his way to very land locked Oxford Mississippi. Either way, the NCAA has allegedly denied this waiver and has Nutt and company scrambling, very much like they were hoping to have Masoli do for them this year.
