"I hope I can bring leadership qualities to the team. I just want to show everybody that you can continue to struggle or you can move on. You don't have to keep pondering on something, just keep moving forward. I will bring all type of tenacity to the football field and a winning attitude. I just want to win, man."

Glad he's here. He's got about as many quality BCS offers as the 2013 class put together.
huge. as Duff said, we need him to allow the coaches to start redshirting some of our WR's - the depth chart is ridiculously packed right now.
Great news for him as well. Paying full out of state tuition - wow! Hope he earns that scholly by summer.

Don't believe he can be eligible after attending Sam Houston State last semester, without sitting for a year. They are D1.
Unless the rule has changed, he must sit a year, even if he wasn't on the Sam Houston State football team.
(anyone remember Mel Holliday, running back from Nebraska who wasn't in their program but had to sit anyways?)
The only thing I can think of is that either the NCAA changed the rule since 2005 regarding the "year of residency" or perhaps, there is a waiver one can get perhaps under the following conditions:
Vincent was suspended from CU.
Vincent attended JuCo with the intent of transferring back.
Classes he needed were not available at the Juco, and thus (perhaps) he could petition the NCAA to allow him to take the requisite courses at Sam Houston State in order to continue along the track towards graduation (as mandated by the NCAA as well).

officially cleared to rejoin as a walk on Congrats austin!
I never saw much the one fall he was here, but he was young and raw. Hopefully physical and emotional maturity will allow him to really shine. We need some playmakers and Vincent has a chance to change this position from "aweful" to ok if he can step up.
Getting back into CU thru the Juco route after being expelled is no easy task for one, so that's a good sign. But coming back here after being suspended shows me a lot. He could have easily gone elsewhere without penalty, but choosing to walk-on here takes some nerve. Wish him a lot of luck!
