Former Georgia football tight end Luke Ford was denied an eligibility waiver by the NCAA on Wednesday afternoon and likely will not be able to play this season unless his appeal is approved.
With Ford transferring to Illinois to be closer to home with his ailing grandfather and the rest of his family, one would think his waiver would have gotten approved.
However, the NCAA had other intentions, shocking the college football community and prompting a number of fans, players and media members to tweet out their support for Ford.
