Neil's whole purpose to come to the US was to develop his basketball game to play professionally in the US or Europe. How would that fit with his transferring out of Division 1? The reason Neil has not played is he was either injurred or ill. When he was healthy, his playing time increased from game to game. If he is unable to play due to illness or injury it doesn't matter what division he is in. He won't play.
Under D-II rules, a student-athlete who has previously transferred from one four-year school to a second four-year school, and then transfers to a D-II school, must sit a year in residence at the D-II school before he is eligible to participate. The fact that the SA may have also sat a year in residence at the second four-year school is irrelevant. Were Neil to transfer to a D-II school, he would not be immediately eligible.
