The NCAA also passed new transfer rules;

Quote:Division I student athletes will have the ability to transfer and receive a scholarship at another school without asking having to ask their current school or coach for permission.

In addition, in the event that a school “tampers” with a current student athlete at another school has been added to a list of potential Level 2 violations, making it a more serious offense.

Im confused by what you mean? What loophole? This rule was in place, but now they are making stricter punishments for offenders.

"Division I student athletes will have the ability to transfer and receive a scholarship at another school without asking having to ask their current school or coach for permission."

I read that as any P5 (or any team really) can grab any player they want since the school has no power with players leaving. Sounds like this works much better for students going to better competition rather than the other way around (you usually don't need the school's permission to transfer from a P5 to a G5).

You're right. I didn't read that correctly. I read it like it was a new rule and not a now more serious one. After the UNC BS it seems like trying to poach a player from another school would be a pretty easy thing to pull off.

Bobby likes it.

Its not like we block transfers except to conference foes/VCU/W&M?etc.

I also deleted my post. Don't want it to go in THAT direction. I apologize.

Its a good rule from a standpoint of players that want to leave the school after a coach is fired or leaves.

I like the new redshirt rule.
Now true freshmen can play in games where injuries have affected our roster, especially in the last 4 games of the season. By then, they should have had enough practice time to know what to do, and it will give them another measure of how much they need to improve in the off-season.

Very well. I have edited mine accordingly. No need to apologize, I'm sure someone else will chime in around midnight and go in that direction anyway.

Edge of my seat waiting to hear if its even remotely up for debate.

It would have made that 80-20 game longer and slightly more palatable.

Nah it just means instead of student needing permission to contact, their name goes into a database, where schools can contact the student.

BTW conference rules will still apply. For instance B1G students cannot receive a scholarship if they transfer to another B1G school

It’s a double edge sword though. If a student decides to be entered into the database, they are basically giving up their scholarship. Schools do not have to hold it for the next year.

So do they still have to set for a year?

They can play up to 4 games without jeopardizing their redshirt.

I am talking about the Transfer rule.
Going form one FBS to another
Still a year on the bench? Expect for grad transfers

At this point..yes. I know they are working on this, but it may not change this summer.

So an athlete can play in 25% of a season and then redshirt? I'd be tempted to play my best freshman guys the last 4 games of a season to get them some game experience since it won't affect their eligibility. And it seems this should be carried over to basketball as well so as not to discriminate. So a hoops player could play in about 8 games and still redshirt.

I was thinking about the new redshirt rule, would this increase the cost of travel because we are bringing redshirting players to away games that normally would stay home?

What is the limit on travel, how many players travel with the team?

I believe only 70 (in football) can travel to away games. It may increase other sports though.
