Thank you Da One.  To add to the conversation, Fatpongo you are reading from the wrong document.  The Five Year Rule DOES NOT APPLY TO DIVISION III.  The following is from the DIVISION III MANUAL....rule 14.2.1 is this:

Collegiate Enrollment Concurrent with Service Assignment.  Any time in which a student athelete is enrolled for a minimum full-time program of studies as a regular student in a collegiate institution while simultaneously on active duty in the United States government shall count against the 10 semesters/15 quarters in which the four seasons of eligibility must be completed.

Another simple google search reveals this:

There have been different occasions where a Division I guy drops out a few years and comes back to school around age 28 even, to play at the Division III level.  I've seen it firsthand son.

I hate to respond and give this kid more attention,  but Fatpongo historically and consistently has his information wrong, and spreads FALSE information which is just not cool. 

Bottom line is, and I don't know what the time frame or situation was for Joe Sergo playing at IWU, I seriously doubt Benedictine would let him play this year or next year if he wasn't eligible.  I believe most schools at this level understand and abide by rules.  So I really don't think you are uncovering a big scandal.

Are you sure you have ALL the facts on Sergo's IWU experience?

To the kid who is fatpongo:  Didn't Joe Sergo say earlier he dropped out of IWU and took 1.5 years off?  Also, you might want to consult the bylaws of the NCAA Div III.  The five year rule does not apply to Division III.
