[NU Sports] ND QB to Wisc?

[Beamsley, Jeff]

Don't know the details.

Taken on face value, Martelli sounds like a jerk.

Regardless of who is at fault, the publicity surrounding this can't be
good for St. Joe recruiting.  Probably why (according to the article)
Martelli was the first coach to deny this sort of transfer.

This was in the papers here (in PA) some time ago. In this case, as I
recall, the student-athlete has already graduated from St. Joe's, wants
to transfer to UAB, attend grad school and play another year. Coach will
not release him from scholarship....

sounds like  a coach-athlete personal spat....more than anything.

An interesting story, but kind of a one-sided telling of it, I suspect.

First the kid goes from Bucknell to St. Joe's and then he
decides he wants to go to UAB.  Academics doesn't seem to be the reason
why
for either transfer.
