Minium: Challenge to NCAA transfer rules is worrisome for mid-majors
http://pilotonline.com/sports/college/ol...bf2c4.html
Essentially, ODU and other mid-majors would become farm teams for the Power 5. Many stars in Conference USA and the Sun Belt one year would end up on the rosters of ACC and SEC teams the next.
Discipline would suffer. Coaches would hesitate to come down hard on star players for breaking rules if they know the players could simply leave.
And if scholarship limits get thrown out, heaven help every mid-major. Power 5 schools would scoop up every choice athlete.
The real victim here would be Football Championship Subdivision programs, such as Norfolk State and James Madison, which would raided by mid-major FBS schools. College recruiting is already Darwinian. This would make it more so.
