Doesn't Christophany literally mean a post-resurrection appearance of Christ? If so, sweet Jesus, that's some pressure for a kid.

It's actually a reference to post-Ascension Christ. The Bright Light on the Road to Damascus technically qualifies, actually, in traditional theological usage.

January 9, 20205 yr 16 hours ago, Gil Bang said: https://247sports.com/Player/Chris-Murray-46039240/ UCLA junior-to-be offensive lineman Chris Murray will enter the transfer portal. His mom informed Ben Bolch of the Los Angeles Times. The two-year starter is a vital part of UCLA's offensive line plans for next season. The depth chart at offensive line was razor thin, so losing a proven, two-year starter is a big blow. Murray will likely have to sit out a season to be eligible at his new program. He'd have to prove a hardship situation to the NCAA or compel UCLA to endorse a waiving of the NCAA rule that demands a transfer sit out a year. Since Murray hasn't redshirted, he'll be able to use that redshirt to sit out a year at his new program and be eligible as a redshirt junior for the 2021 season.

January 10, 20205 yr So if you graduate before your eligibility expires, do you have to be in school? I'm guessing yes, but do you have to be in a degree program? In other words, why graduate transfer just because you have graduated? I'd think it might be fun to take underwater basketweaving and whatnot, for a change. To the extent you haven't already.

So that you can get a graduate degree, if that matters to you? (It's possible that some players cannot get into grad school at the university where they did their undergrad - Tre Watson example below. For others, they may be able to get into a better grad school than the one at their university ... and continue to play football on scholarship.) TRE WATSON However, Watson was still eligible for one more season as a graduate. All he needed to do was get into graduate school. There was one issue, though: Watson said he was unable to get into any of the graduate programs at Cal. Edited January 10, 20205 yr by Getafix
January 10, 20205 yr 42 minutes ago, Hiphopopotamos said: Thats why the reason Stanford/Shaw have given is bullshit. Well, actually I could see the kind of player that goes to Stanford being interested in a graduate degree of some sort. The average D1 football player, not so much. And I can absolutely see the attraction for a player who can change venues, maybe get a little more playing time, and get a decent graduate degree. But that would not apply, again, to the average D1 player that makes up most rosters.

Here's a December article... https://www.mercurynews.com/2019/12/16/stanford-is-dominating-the-transfer-portal-what-gives-on-the-farm/ Dec 16th: Oops, make that 12. Yet another player just showed up in the database. (Every time you look, it seems, a new name appears.) As of Monday morning, the Cardinal has 12 players — 12! — in the portal No other program in the Pac-12 is close, at least at the moment. (The counts are expected to rise in coming weeks as seasons conclude.) But it’s not time for Stanford fans to worry. Check that. It is time for Stanford fans to worry, but not because of the number of players currently in the transfer portal. Key points: Each player in the portal is graduating this month or on track to have his degree by June. All 12 are expected to be graduate transfers with one year of eligibility. Approximately half the players are not expected to contribute next season, and four have played sparingly — or not at all — over the course of their careers (Richardson, Peek, Trinh and Riccitelli). Several players currently in the portal could return. “Some will leave, but some will stay and be important pieces of an exciting 2020 Stanford football team,’’ cardinal coach David Shaw told the Hotline in a text message. He added: “I have been one of the biggest proponents of graduate transfers in all of college football. A student-athlete who graduates in four years or less, and has a year of eligibility remaining, should be able to explore the options in a limited time frame. Our time frame is wider because we don’t have a bowl game to prepare for.” That was the extent of Shaw’s comment on the situation, which is fluid in both directions -- More Stanford players could enter the portal in the coming weeks and months, but some could remove their names and rejoin the program for spring practice.
