College Football Players Most Likely to Transfer This Offseason — Bleacher Report

This has changed the entire out look of college football. Used to we only had to worry about a player leaving after their junior.
Not anymore.

Don’t see a problem with it at all.

Agreed. Since the school has no contractual obligation to renew each year I don't see why athletes have to sit out a year. IMO if a school refuses to renew a scholarship because the player hasn't performed at the level the coach prefers, they should have go a year without using that scholarship.

Bama, Clemson, OU, and ND in playoffs. Not seeing a lot of change.

Good we need all the "free agents" we can get.

 

[Chilmonty]

Need to load up on "Free Agent Linemen"!!!!

It’s a great rule. Either rewards students for graduation by giving them an opportunity to find playing time.

Win-win

They obviously didn't spend a lot of time compiling this list. I'm gonna say like a Dalmer-Nose Pizza, about 30 minutes or less.

 

[thegasman54]

I predict w take 3 , 1 of each

DL OL and LB

You will when you see Bama, UGA, OSU, and Clemson as permanent fixtures of the playoffs.

Doesn’t matter. I don’t agree with the principle of players not being able to transfer to another school without penalty (within reason). You don’t own them when they attend your school lol.

Didn't Bama have Coker transfer in and they won National Championship with him?
If a team had one missing link on their team then it could be filled in by one of these guys

That is only a short term solution to our team needs though

 

[Adam Sandler]

A lot of good players on that list

That's already happening

 

[CA_Vol]

Yup. And you think that will be alleviated by free agency? Nope. It will excerbate it.

I agree.

Just helps NCAA football get closer to the NFL system, which is afterall...why these young men are playing football in the first place.
Probably should be paying them salaries too. Their worth to the university far exceeds the tuition they don't have to pay while on scholarship.
If you don't think so..calculate the cost of a year of education vs even the average NFL salary.

Any QB's who dont play like they are in a wheelchair available?

If you are going to pay them, college players should then go through some sort of draft rather than being recruited.

Not following?
The overwhelming majority transfer because for playing time. You think Bama is going to use spots on kids that can't crack the lineup at TN or Arkansas or almost any school?

There will be A FEW but Bama is so loaded, they will lose a lot more than they gain. Saban didn't fight so hard during the Kennedy transfer because he believed a new rule would help him.

A better comparison would be full value of scholarship vs semi pro football, NBA Dream League, and minor league baseball salaries

 

[VolFanNC09]

Lots of QBs and RBs in the transfer market. Would be nice to get the back from Clemson or Cincy and a QB

 

[orangepeopleeater]

Wouldn't this be a major gamble on the players part? If you leave your college and scholarship there is no guarantee that you will be picked up. If you are it may be to a smaller college. Then you pray every night you don't get injured.
