NCAA to eliminate "One-Time" transfer rule- players can now transfer many times without penalty

An NCAA press release this past week contained this change that they will be voting to confirm-
https://www.ncaa.org/news/2022/7/20...dorses-transformation-committee-concepts.aspx

Finally, the Council endorsed a concept that would eliminate the blanket rule prohibiting transferring more than once. The concept would also implement transfer portal "entry windows," or periods of time in which student-athletes must provide their school with written notification of transfer to be eligible to compete immediately the following academic year.

So now players will be able to transfer as many as 4 or 5 times with the grad-transfer rule and the NCAA tendency to hand out waivers more easily. But one concern is what it will do to schools' APR, the graduation rate number that the NCAA tracks, and can lead to penalties for the school. The likelihood of a player graduating goes down with each transfer.
From CBSSports- The transfer portal is about to get even wilder when the NCAA allows players to transfer multiple times

As usual the NCAA instead of correcting a problem they made it worse. The teams were getting decimated with all the transfers so how does the NCAA correct the problem. They make it so they can transfer more. :roll:
 
Players are essentially free agents. College players will have more freedom to change teams and increase benefits (money) than professional players, who remain under contract and abide by collective bargaining regulations
 
Whose brilliant idea is this? Is the next move going to be to allow students to transfer during the season and become eligible immediately? Might as well follow this with a complete abandonment of any academic regulations. NCAA is definitely going the wrong direction.
 
I haven't been following this stuff, so forgive me if this is a stupid question, but when these kids are signing for X amount of dollars to attend a certain school, are they agreeing to stay for a certain period of time? Either way, is it lawful to have contracts in the same way that the NBA teams have? If so, this could really draw an even larger rift between power conferences and mid-majors and I think it would eventually lead to two separate leagues. Even still, I don't think it's a terrible thing to see kids who spend the bulk of their time training and performing for these universities to get paid for it. For too long, I think they've taken advantage of these young men while raking in billions off of their work.

I believe in the free market and believe if they really make it completely open with contracts and such, this could turn out to be a good thing in the long run. Consider how power conferences have paid players under the table for years and will send a player packing if they don't pan out. Today, with it being open, they're going to end up paying a lot more for the best players and just as in days past, some of them won't work out, but the financial cost to some of these universities will be much greater, and if contracts get involved they may be stuck with these players on the roster (though I doubt that the big boys would allow this to ever become a thing).

Whatever the details of how they move forward are, the next few years will definitely be a volatile one in college basketball and I suspect we'll see a high degree of turnover much like we did this year. As I've said in the past, if I get to a point where I'm rooting for an entirely different team every year, that will be the point that I check out, and I imagine many others feel as I do.
 
The NCAA is enabling a superficial and transient basketball culture that actually starts when many of these kids are 13-14 yrs old. Perceived high end recruits will often attend 2 or 3 high schools before they settle on a college. It's in their culture to leverage and move on. The value of a degree, loyalty and pride in community are essentially extinct for many.

At what point can these NIL groups and sponsors start paying kids? Do they have to be enrolled at the school, or can the payouts begin while they are still in high school and being recruited? And if it doesn't allow potential recruits to start getting NIL money, why shouldn't high schoolers or even grade schoolers be able to cash in on their NIL, too?
NIL money has already turned into a powerful recruiting tool, since the top recruits on the market know where the most NIL money is available.
 
However this has to be voted on and passed. Isn't that correct. I would think anybody in their right mind would vote this down

Dave Eminian has an article that came out on Monday, saw it on PJ Star's website, that talks about the NIL program and a new collective that's been formed in Peoria named Home of the Brave. Accoirding to one of the co-founders, Joe Messmore, this is the first collective in the Mo Valley and just the 3rd basketball focused in the country. The other 2 are Gonzaga and Wichita State. It's a really fascinating article.
 
I know this subject is supposed to be about the players, but the integrity and responsibility of coaches has been ignored or abated by many, from fans, to senior administrators, to the NCAA. Coaches get an offer from other school and leave their school that they are under contract. Coaches get caught violating rules and regulations and move on to the pros, with no penalty. Players see this and realize that there is only loyalty to the almighty dollar.
 
So much for obtaining degrees. All players wind up in the NBA, anyway, making bazillions of dollars, so degrees are irrelevant. (Cynicism for those who can't/won't/don't get it.)
