Heaps, OTOH, can absolutely be a big difference maker for you guys.
As to the 'transfer' rule; I don't believe it actually burns a year of eligibility unless you've already redshirted. The reason being that it would make the '4 in 5' rule impossible. You have 5 years to complete your 4 years of eligibility. If you redshirt, then the 'transfer' year also burns a year of eligiblity by creating an additional 'dead' year in those 5, so you only play for 3.
The only exceptions are for medical reasons when they sometimes grant that 6th year to complete 4.
If he hasn't redshirted, he can sit out the year and still knock out 4 years in 5. At least I'm pretty sure that's the case.

This is how I feel. Heaps is a much more impressive acquisition than Crist. Good job fatty.
