The question has arisin in some discussions here about the rules for eligibility: 1. When a student transfers, how much eligibility do they retain? 2. When a student transfers, how long do they have to sit out? What does "sit out" mean -- how much can they participate with the team... 3. Now that I think about it, what is a "red shirt" allowed to do? 4. For non-transfers, what are the eligibility rules? I realize now that I am asking for a lot of information, and if I had ordered a rule book, I'd probably have the answers.... I *will* order a rule book for next year! (I wonder... if everyone on hockey-l ordered a rule book, would the NCAA notice? Would it be the biggest single increase in rule book orders in NCAA history?) thanks, --david
