From the article: "Redshirt sophomore offensive lineman Brandon Kennedy ... graduated from Alabama in December and is close to completing the requirements for his master's degree."
Seriously, you can play football for Alabama and in three years graduate with a bachelors and a masters degree. Those courses at Bama must be real challenging, right up there with North Carolina courses....
As much as I think grad transfer should be allowed, I don't have a problem blocking them from a team in the same conference or on the schedule. Of the 120ish D1 FBS schools, that would still leave ~83% of schools available, maybe more. Though they should allow students a chance to appeal to a board in unusual circumstances (only school that offers doctorates in a specific field, for example).

Agree.
He must have done the equivalent of PSEO wherever he was. That would give him 2 years of credits, mainly in the general classes you need to complete a degree. If his major was in a subject that had class choices in the summer, he could have got his bachelor degree in 2 years. Then a year for the masters. It is doable.
