A change in Division I transfer rules?
Proposal on the table to scrap the rule where student-athletes have to sit for a year.

I hate this idea.... sounds like pure chaos with most of the chaos likely directed at G5 schools

That is probably the motive for the change. I doubt that are all that concerned about the players' welfare.

Under this proposal, recruiting will never end. Every kid who becomes disgruntled over playing time, or doesn't like his coach, or isn't happy with his new car, etc. will be moving on.

Curiously, I wonder if this helps out G5 schools more than it hurts. Think about it, the 3rd string DT at Ohio State thinks he's better than the guy in front of him, and he wants ESPN to see it. And, hey, whatta ya know, the MAC has lots of ESPN games... Would be a two-way street for sure.

Watch them allow kids to go P5 without sitting out, but guys going to G5 have to sit, just to really give us the finger.

Or the professional bull$hi++ers that go into their family's home, preach family, preach unity, preach transparency, and then bail for millions at the end of the season. I think they call these guys coaches.

No, they actually have to sit. Nice analogy though.

RE: A change in Division I transfer rules?
Biggest issue I have with this is the extreme mobility of coaches in DI football - and not just head coaches, but assistants too. This would make it too darn easy for a coach to raid the best players from his previous team. That happens enough as it is even with the year sitting out. I imagine Adenyi would have loved to bring along Kareem Hunt to Iowa State, or Manning taking Storm Norton with him there too. If they didn't have to sit out a year? Might have made it a harder decision to stay.

And of course DI coaches have proved time and again that there is no rule that at least a few of them won't violate if it means possibly getting another win or two. So I expect there will be many coaches who will be quietly recruiting players from other schools behind the scenes. Sure some will be caught and penalized, but the damage will be done.

Most sports and the lower divisions already have this, so in principle it's not a horrible idea. It's the money of DI ball that makes this scary.

That would suck, especially here at Toledo. We would never see another player like Kareem Hunt past their Sophomore year.

Kareem would have stayed.

Nah. We get their disgruntled 3rd team players and they get our starters who really want to be somewhere else anyway? Guys who aren't going to be playing to win, but playing to display their mad skills in the hope of a transfer? No. There are SO MANY ways this would hurt us.

In years past, MOST of the guys from the Big Money conferences who transferred in here never saw the field at Toledo. It wasn't until we started getting the grad transfer type guys, or guys from schools that has some form of major internal turmoil, that we picked up some guys who actually saw the field.

What's going to happen is your going to have a coach like Urban Meyer say, We'd love to have you at O$U but we're loaded at your position this year....OR....you're just not quite ready to play at O$U...or...you just need to get your grades up...so why don't you go ahead and play at Toledo for a year or two, and we'll call you up.

This is going to create so much turnover, uncertainty, inconsistency, instability, etc. that a team that could be great one year could be crap the next year simply because their star players got called up to the "majors."

This is bull01-rivals. It's time for the non-P5 and independents to grow a pair and take a stand against this! No way should we have to be their farm teams!!

NCAA decides not to do this. Things stay as they are.
