"All I want to do is talk to coaches right now," Setty said. "What am I supposed to do, just sit here and hope they eventually give me my release? It's just not fair."

"It's unethical, wrong and immoral," he added.

As Setty works in the classroom in an effort to obtain that 2.6 GPA, he watches names off the record-setting transfer list -- which is now closing in on 400 players -- make decisions on their future destinations."My options are already limited," Setty admitted. "And each day that goes by, they are less and less. All I want is my release and be able to talk to schools."

However, according to Moccia, the only manner that will occur is if he can get his grades to a 2.6. He's not going to budge. Setty told CBSSports.com that he thinks he currently has a pair of A's, a B and is struggling in his ethics class with either a C or D -- which could result in him falling short of the 2.75 he needs this semester in order to reach the magic number.

Both Moccia and Hinson said they will pay for tutors and summer school, but that's a small consolation to what Setty really wants as he waits for his appeal on Thursday: permission to speak to Division I coaches and ultimately the opportunity to continue his career elsewhere.

"I'm hoping, God-willing, that I can get a 2.6," Setty said. "But I don't think I should have to be sweating it out. It's wrong."

The intent of the APR, developed back when the late Myles Brand was running the NCAA, had no shortage of merit. However, it's flawed and needs tweaking. Not just due to situations such as what Setty, Zollo and Ferguson all find themselves in, either. Let's say a player has failed multiple drug tests or gotten into trouble with the law. If a coach dismisses him from the program with a GPA below 2.6, the school takes an APR hit.

I am thinking he might want to pass that class and fuly understand it before throwing ethics, immorality and such into the conversation. Also thinking his grammie may thing bringing God's will into whether he passes a course may fall into the very fabric of ethics and immorality in her eyes. My gram would have told me .."Thomas, GOd has very little interest in you passing a class, he gave you gifts you are not using....to ask him to will you a grade is not right"

Right.  That's what football2007 said.  A visit to redhawk clinches it for us.

look for @GoodmanCBS's nephew Treg Setty to pick Ohio U over Miami OH...#MAC #transfer @TheRecruitScoop @ebosshoops
