Tre King (Georgetown transfer)
- Thread starter mjhavlo76
- Start date
Odds are he gets a waiver for the fall, technically he isn’t eligible until a year from now. I’m assuming they will try for a waiver for this semester, but I don’t think there will be enough time to get it approved. Hope I’m wrong, but I feel good about getting him to start next season at least and have two full years to play. The depth would be nice for this season though.
With the lack of of a response from Stanz, this must be premium board material.....
Or there is almost no chance, and the answer is already in this thread.
I see tre is in ISU student directory. Not yet listed on cyclones dot com roster.
Not worried - just interesting the lack of official announcement on him.

Like any transfer any other year, he’s enrolled and can practice with the team now. The question is when he can play in a game with the team.
He's on the team roster on the website now. In the announcement it says he will provide immediate help...does that mean he is actually eligible to play right away or just that he can practice with the team and attend games on the bench?
Key phrase for those wondering about when to expect him on the floor: "We're excited to have Tre enhance the competition of our practice environment each day"
Just after I had accepted that Tre wouldn't play this year, you had to post this, which can only mean there's actually a chance he'll play this year.
It's just odd that that the staff doesn't come out and say whether or not they intend to play King this season (if the waiver is granted).
Probably trying to walk-on at a community college back in Mississippi. I can't imagine any good program taking a flyer on a guy who sells out on his coaches and teammates a week before the season starts.
He should get the waiver to play in the non conference since he dropped out of school on Oct 15th, shouldn't he? Wouldn't he technically be eligible to play October 15th?
It has never worked that way before (see: McKay, Jameel), but I’m not even going to attempt to guess what the NCAA might do.
I doubt he "sold them out". He almost certainly heard the news that he was way down the depth chart until he got his defense where TJ wanted it, and decided that wasn't going to happen. System isn't for everyone.
