Freak, you are correct regarding J. Walberg transferring to Pepperdine and playing immediately the year he transferred. The rule at that time was if your had graduated (in essence your were a graduate student), had a year of eligibiity left, you could transfer to another college and play immediately. In fact, a student from Arizona State transferred to UNLV to play for his dad that very same year. Since then, that rule has been rescinded.

His senior year at SMC, Jason Walberg medically redshirted.
