Any one with information about Dow's eligibility issue right now?

Did a quick search and cannot find any information. I think their are some details on the pay board so maybe someone will share.
 
Hmmm, couldn't find anything either. Is this similar to Rick Fox back in the 80's at Warsaw where he had no eligibility left to play Indiana HS basketball (completing 8 semesters between Warsaw and Bahamas before his senior season according to Wikipedia)? I doubt it would be grade related.

Was that similar to Haarms problem last year? If so get him up here next semester. Look what it did for Haarms!
 
I'm looking forward to this guy. Got a good feeling about him.......unless it doesn't pan out, then forget everything I just said.

Impossible now, Pit....as it's emblazoned for the Board. I join you in looking forward to seeing Emmanuel Dowuona play and watching his development as a Boilermaker.

it's on a different site as well. the site indicated he had not played a game this year until it gets straightened out. it's probably very similar to Haarms' situation last year.

I have no inside info. I cannot testify if that site is truthful or accurate. I just read and surf the net a lot.

If so, get him on campus now and shirt him in the spring and get him to play against Haas, Haarms, Taylor, and Vince in practice every damn day. I am convinced that Haarms doing that last year did more for his game in that 3 month span than had he played his 'senior year'.
 
He needs paperwork from home country. Slow process from Africa

That sounds a lot like the situation Haarms was in last year.

Since we never found an athlete to fill biggie's scholarship, could we use that scholarship to bring Dow to Purdue a semester early?

Not the same situation at all. Haarms college eligibility clock would have started if he did not come to Purdue a semester early. He was fine academically. Based on these reports, Dow isn't cleared to play academically, because his school in Africa is being slow sending his records. If he isn't academically eligible in high school, he certainly wouldn't be academically eligible in college.
