Former junior college defensive end Josh Allen, who committed to Syracuse as a transfer in April and was medically disqualified from football at SU in July, has been granted permission to speak with other schools that will clear him to play.
In an email to Allen Wednesday morning, Syracuse Director of Athletics John Wildhack said Allen could discuss playing with other programs “except for other Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) schools.”
But on the ACC coaches teleconference Wednesday, SU head coach Dino Babers said that was a “mishap,” and Allen can speak with all schools, including those in the ACC.
