We can only hope it will be like James Banks on the MBB team — we get news they’re approved about 2 hours before the Clemson game, and they’re in Atlanta and have to Uber to Clemson and get there during the coin toss.

That's absolutely not true, but people DO keep saying it.

"By ACC rules, Ezzard would have to sit out a season at Tech and lose a season of eligibility, as he is transferring within the conference. That would mean he would sit out the 2019 season and have three seasons remaining. However, by the NCAA’s rules that normally grant Division I athletes five seasons to complete their eligibility, his situation wouldn’t be any different at any other FBS school. He would sit out the 2019 season and then have time for only three seasons before his five-year window closed."

Can the 2 transfers that weren't eligible for immediate playing time at gt now transfer to another school and sit out. Was their gt commitment conditional on playing time in 19 and are they now free to shop around?

Theoretically, yes if they have not enrolled for Fall semester. As a practical matter that doesn't make sense.

The ACC is not going to go against NCAA decision

Ezzard case is more credible than this one. Both had coaching changes, but Ezzard falls within 100 mile range. Travis is from West Palm Beach about
300-400miles away

Travis also applied for his waiver before the coaching change. Petrino still was at UL when he entered the portal. I don't see how he got a waiver at all.

His was a fairly unique situation.

"There were reports of verbal abuse by Nick Petrino -- son of then Louisville coach Bobby Petrino -- against Travis during practices during the season."

And for those who keep insisting the NCAA has the final approval, your posted link states otherwise:

"The Division I Committee for Legislative Relief, which is comprised of administrators from schools and conferences within Division I, approved Travis’ waiver on appeal. Then, a request to the ACC faculty athletics representatives was required to waive the conference’s restriction against immediate eligibility for undergraduate student-athletes who transfer directly from one conference school to another. The final decision from the faculty athletics representatives was communicated to FSU on Monday."
