Eastern Michigan player not allowed to travel with team to bowl game, calls out NCAA
Eastern Michigan's Dan Samuelson voiced his frustration with the NCAA in a lengthy Facebook post after he was informed that he would be unable to travel with the team to the Popeyes Bahamas Bowl.
Samuelson played offensive lineman for Michigan before leaving as Jim Harbaugh arrived in Ann Arbor.
Michigan's Jake Butt shared a screenshot of the post on Wednesday evening and said, "Posted by a former teammate. Can the NCAA get anything right? Probably not. Common sense? Zero."

The NCAA states “student-athletes who transfer must sit out of competition for one year, although many student-athletes qualify for exceptions allowing them to begin competing immediately.”
