Your memory is 100% correct. However, it wasn't just for Cam. Up to seventeen players would have been ineligible for the NCG had it not been for the Administrative shenanigans down there...If memory serves, the Barn delayed making decisions on grade appeals until after the national championship game when Can was playing. (Normally those decisions were made in December, but that year was a little "special.")
Has anyone ever checked how many Barn players were actually declared academically ineligible the day after the championship? Individual cases wouold be protected by FERPA, but as a group, did any journalist dig into those data or was it lost in the euphoria of finally wining a championship?
