Meachum waited for several months after the season ended to announce he was leaving, which effectively made it very difficult for BG to find a replacement. It was also assumed that he used UD simply as a stopgap with every intention of transferring to Illinois at whatever time they offered him a scholarship. There is a big difference between the two situations.
