Da'Monte Coxie to enroll at Memphis!!!
[Image: 18534851-mmmain.jpg]

Quote:It has been quite the ride for East St. John wide receiver Da'Monte Coxie, as the former LSU commit will make his last stop at Memphis, where he is set to enroll for classes.

The 6-foot-3, 185-pounder was a long-time LSU commitment, but due to an academic situation that caused Coxie to be a late qualifier, the Tigers were not an option this late in the process. Alabama and other programs were keeping tabs on Coxie, but ultimately it was Memphis University that extended an offer to the playmaker.

"I am feeling a sense of relief," Coxie said. "I'm ready to ball and that is about it."

Coxie will be an academic redshirt for the Tigers this fall, which is the least of his worries, considering everything he has gone through to this point.

Coxie transferred to East St. John for his senior season, with his academic standing being the biggest question mark surrounding his future. LSU hoped Coxie could get everything in order before the finish of his senior year, but the prep standout's classes carried into the summer months, leaving him with very few options once completed.

He was in talks with junior colleges as he prepared to go that route if need be, but after passing all of his summer courses, Coxie found himself as a college qualifier, although he will have to take an academic redshirt his first year on campus.

Coxie and his family are currently en route to Memphis, where he will be greeted by wide receivers coach David Johnson, a New Orleans native.

I'm not up to speed on rules - why would a player who is qualified for college have to sit as an academic redshirt - I'm sure there are circumstance not spelled out in the article?

It means he's a partial qualifier evidently.
