Football Transfer Question

So a rant of mine in the recruiting thread brought up the fact that Locksley did a spectacular job at keeping our roster from completely imploding. Many expected the portal to be a UMD Football going out of business sale. Everyone was under the impression that UMD players would get immediate eligibility elsewhere and we would get raided.

But I cannot recall ever hearing about any discussions from the NCAA giving our players all Hardship Waivers. Did this ever get any traction?

It came to mind due to McLean possibly leaving and everyone saying it didnt make sense because he would have to sit out. Six months ago we all would have felt that all of our players should be free to move on without punishment. And we wouldn't have blamed them for doing so. A teammate died, all the coaches left/were fired and they have to play on that same field. If Tathan Martell can get a hardship waiver because his HC "retired", why aren't our players getting them? And if anyone knows that they are or could ask the right people it would be greatly appreciated.
