From the Blogs: Rausch, Graunke Out

Stephen Tsai has some details about Brent Rausch being deemed ineligible, at least for now, due to a clerical error.

The problem stems from an eligibility form Rausch filled out Aug. 2 during the orientation session for first-year Warriors.
Rausch inadvertently put in the wrong code in one of form’s boxes.
The mistake was not detected until last week.

Despite the support of the Western Athletic Conference, of which UH is a member, the NCAA had not ruled on the matter today. A half-hour before the Warriors were to board a bus to the airport this morning, Nicholson told McMackin he would not allow Rausch to go to Boise.

And Dave Reardon writes that Tyler Graunke, who is still dealing with a hand injury, did not make the trip.

QB Tyler Graunke is not on the travel roster for tomorrow’s Boise State game. Coach Greg McMackin said he is “physically unable to perform.”
