This what i know about Wisconsin and Bielema. He "punishes "those kids who are hurt or injured. Tyler was a huge part of his particular class, especially when you consider he was the homegrown star. A similar thing happened to Kim Royston as well and i'm sure many more. Tyler did nothing wrong other than injure his shoulder. From what some have said, Bielema thought he should have came back from it a lot sooner. I haven't heard why he decided against NDSU, i'm shocked as much as anyone.

Nope 100% true. Same thing happened to Royston a few years ago.

When kids are injured in a big time program and cant compete they are actually pushed to the wayside because the next person needs to step up and the coaches need to turn there full attention to those who are playing. Until a player recovers and can actually compete they are an after thought.
It sounds to me as the kid was injured and when he couldnt compete they moved on. Sounds cruel but thats the reality of the situation.

Pretty much. Yet, Tyler wasn't even given a chance to compete. But doesn't matter, he's not coming to NDSU, so it's a dead issue.
Re: Westphal to Oshkosh?? wtf
It sucks that he isn't coming here but I'm not going to get to bent out of shape about a kid who has never played one down in a Bison uniform.

From the media blog:
Turns out transfer Tyler Westphal from the University of Wisconsin never got his paperwork to NDSU, so you probably can question how serious he was about the Bison. The defensive end, at one time a highly touted recruit, is apparently going to play at Division III Wisconsin-Oshkosh.

Wow, a highly regarded DE prospect in all of DI will end up going to a DIII school. Pathetic unless he or someone in his family has health issues. To have all that talent and downgrade your playing level. Wish I would have had Tylers size and talent back in my playing days! I sure would have played DI ball.

If he went DII instead of DIII would it be less pathetic to you? You're the guy who rips on FCS level Drake as so far beneath you so I'm not surprised by your condescending attitude.

I happen to know that he was a wiscy kid who was never given the opportunity to get his paperwork to NDSU. He tried but wasn't even given the chance. It's a known fact Coach Bohl punishes transfer kids.....blah, blah, blah.:cool: :cool: :cool:
The real reason why this kid wasn't on the 2 deep roster at Wisconsin is becoming clear. How can you talk about what a great work ethic you have and how you want to prove yourself then not follow up on the paperwork?!?!?
What he meant was...."The Wisconsin coaching staff realized that I am completely full of shit. I am looking for a new coaching staff to snow and the guys at NDSU are good enough that the coaches won't have to put up with a player full of shit.....better go DIII."
