Metoyer's Status Still Unknown

The status of "Oklahoma signee Trey Metoyer is still in limbo," the Tyler Morning Telegraph reports.

"But at this point, it appears the former Whitehouse High School star receiver will not be suiting up for the Sooners or for Tyler Junior College any time soon.

"According to multiple sources, Metoyer passed only nine of 12 hours of summer school at TJC -- making him ineligible to play junior college football this fall. By law -- the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act -- TJC officials cannot release Metoyer’s grades.

"David Metoyer, Trey’s father, sought help from Whitehouse school officials. Richard Peacock, the assistant superintendent at Whitehouse ISD, confirmed that the meeting took place Tuesday at the father’s request."

A key quote:

“…I don’t know it for a fact, but I would assume if he didn’t qualify for TJC he wouldn’t qualify for (NCAA Division I),” Peacock told the Tyler Paper, adding that “to my understanding” the Metoyers have not received an official ruling from the NCAA Clearinghouse, which still leaves his future at OU in question.

One viable option "for Metoyer, one of the nation's top wide receiver recruits last year, would be to attend Hargrave Military Academy in Chatham, Va., for a year, where he could play football and continue to try to raise his test scores and grade-point average."

This would allow him to "retain all four years of NCAA eligibility."
