Those credits shouldn’t transfer to WF, but what difference does it make? He has a full ride until he graduates and he won’t be going to the NFL early. If he wants a WF degree, he has to earn it like everyone else.His Illinois bio lists his major as recreation, sport and tourism. Maybe some of those early major course credits didn't transfer over to whatever he was planning to major in at Wake.

He needs to have enough credits for Wake to show his academic status at least as far along as the NCAA has his eligibility. For example, if he has two years of eligibility used, then he would need enough good credits so Wake would classify him as st least a junior. If Wake didn't recognize enough credits, then he would be academically ineligible.
Then just recognize them as elective hours. He'll still have to take the right classes to graduate but this way there's no eligibility issues.
It's not elective vs required. It is recognized credits period. Wake simply does not accept many courses at other colleges as creditable in any way shape type or form towards a Wake Forest degree.
Wake is one of the most restrictive colleges with respect to accepting credits earned at other institutions. It is Wake's right to do so, but hurts athletics, in the case of this football player, but more importantly, in the cases of many Junior College baseball players who Wake baseball cannot get admitted to Wake. Hence, Wake cuts itself off from a large pool of talented college baseball players.
For a school that charges what it does, it would be nice if they’d have some flexibility on this issue to make it more affordable.
????? What does flexibility on credits have to do with cost affordability??

The Athletic asks "Why not blow up CFB?"

What a Super CFB League could look like. Thank goodness they didn't use Wake/ACC for the Vandy/SEC comparison.
I saw that. The big difference between the European soccer clubs forming their own group and 15 or so US universities doing so for American football is the NCAA conducts championship in 22 sports. If the big money schools pulled out for football, the NCAA could remove them for other sports. That could leave them in a Title IX problem.
Or the Super CFB League could cut the NCAA a Check to appease them. Doubt it will ever happen. Sure as Hell hope not.
The Super League kind of already happened with expansion.
Agree. Bama, Clemson, tOSU and the other elite programs already benefit the most from the current system. They need teams to play other than the same teams that always faceoff in the BCS playoffs.
People are already sick of those teams playing each other in the BCS, don't see the drive to shrink college football to enable those teams to play each other even more often.
Fuck the NCAA. Title IX and all these vanity sports are sucking CFB's money teat.
Carson Petitbon, QB, Class of '23, younger brother of Luke, is leading Gonzaga to a 5-0 season with wins over St. Johns and DeMatha. He will be one worth keeping an eye on.
