Jeffrey Fitzgerald couldn't stay qualified academically but transferred to K-State with zero problems. Just like any school, the academics requirements are loosened considerably for football players, but they're still more stringent than most.
I don't think Moses "so obviously wants to be a Buckeye" as one put it, as much as this is just a further sign of the extreme due diligence he's been doing throughout this process. I don't think he's been to Columbus yet (which would contradict one of the points in the Coyer thread about no offers without some kind of visit first unless Moses was up for a camp or junior day or something.) He's visited tons of places - was in Knoxville last weekend even though his Tennessee recruiter was Latrell Scott - who is now at UVA.

Coyer did not have a offer. If he visited he would have gotten an offer...
Moses needs to be allowed to visit, and if he does...
OSU would shoot to the top of his list.....
If he is willing to wait past signing day to get his school work in line so he can visit...that tells me he wants to be a Buckeye badly
