It's more of a "principal of the matter" stance than what would be in his best interest. Obviously, it would be a pretty selfish thing if a player was even allowed to get away with such theatrics - I don't think it would put him in very good standing with the staff, his teammates or fans. If it was my son I probably wouldn't pass along such advice...

My point is - at some point college athletes need to look out for themselves. His case for eligibility in this case was pretty solid - he hadn't participated in a single official practice, Butler granted his release, Butler endorsed his waiver to become eligible - if the NCAA looks at this case and says we think your still ineligible. I don't think it's that big of a reach for a player to say okay fine - then I will focus on my health, my education, my time etc. etc. until I am eligible. I think college athletes have rights and I think that the NCAA has long taken advantage of those rights for their own benefit.

But... Obviously he shouldn't seriously do that. I'm just talking.

Expecting consistency out of the NCAA is like expecting an intellectual discussion at a Kardashians house. Ain't gonna get it.

Don’t worry guys, I still have eligibility left. We will be fine. As long as someone can get the ball for me when it goes out of bounds. I’m getting to old to pick it up off the ground. Other than that I’m good to go.

I thought since we are his 2nd school, he did not qualify for immediate transfer.

I think COVID has tossed most of the transfer rules out the window...

and keep in mind, in the next year or so; the kids will (likely) be able to transfer as often as Larry Brown changed coaching jobs...
