As we originally reported, Washington defensive end Josh Shirley intends to be a graduate transfer and play his final season at UCLA.
It's looking unlikely, though, for the reasons we originally stated.
The main roadblock is getting the NCAA to waive the intra-conference ban on transfers. Shirley has been trying to get the ban waived, specifically to transfer to UCLA, but we're hearing that the chances are slim.
From what we've heard, UCLA would definitely take Shirley if he were able to transfer in.
There is still a chance. Shirley and UCLA are both working with the NCAA.
