The Major League draft show will kick off at 6PM ET August 27.
Will Hooley will host with Alex Goff offering some analysis, and several guests as well.
A lot of attention is given to players born in the USA or are directly US eligible, because the league is gradually emphasizing US-eligible players more and more.
However, in the preview shows GRR produced over the past week, there were several players mentioned who are not, technically, USA eligible. And, as it turned out, that was a good thing because several of those players have been declared domestic by MLR through their Pathway Player Rule.
This is a rule in which a player has not been captured by another nation and is well on the path toward establishing USA eligibility based on residency.
Those players are:
Bautista Araujo, Life University scrumhalf
David Scanlon, Lindenwood University lock
Tristan Sommerville, Penn State flanker
Aaron van Dyk, Arkansas State University No. 8
David Cathcart, Lindenwood University wing
Charlie Platt, U. Mary Washington flannker
Will Lindsay, U. Mary Washington fullback
