But what is that "requirement"? I'm not sure it's 2.0 like everyone else. Could be, but I've heard otherwise. I usually don't recruit them either. But I started doing so, especially with a zone team.
i like to find high skilled ineligibles that have no business dropping to D2, but do sometimes because of them being ineligible. If a guy has a 2.0 HS GPA, and wants to play preference..... start and 25 minutes all day!
So I'll have a nice ineligible on my roster, and still redshirt a guy and be able to compete well. At least that's my goal behind it
