In an article today by the Birmingham News that focused mainly on the status of Tide signee Devonta Bolton, the following nugget was included:

	The other player is former Hoover defensive lineman Kerry Murphy, who is waiting word on academic eligibility after transferring from a prep school.

That is pretty big news as far as I can tell. The plan, prior to this, was that Murphy was going to spend the Fall semester at Hargrave and then attempt to enroll at Alabama in January of 2009. Obviously, though, that has changed. It does not, however, say where he transferred to. I suppose the likely scenario is that he is now at a junior college, but perhaps he is at Alabama trying to get cleared.

Either way, Murphy is no longer at Hargrave. Hopefully someone has another update on this kid.
