Unlimited Transfers are Here.

Honestly, it should help team culture, because those that believe they are better than they really are will go elsewhere and free up resources for those who want to be here.

Only a little over 50% of the players that enter the transfer portal end up playing football at another school in FBS.

Sometimes being a career backup or role player and getting a free education is better than rolling the dice and hoping another teams sees you as a diamond in the rough.

Free Agency is officially here. I like it personally. It's gonna get much harder to horde talent Josh is keeping us ahead of the curve and that's gonna pay off in the next 4 years. Adapt or Die

Then a college should be able to tell a player his scholarship is being withdrawn. Could be an easy way to get rid of the trash.

The problem is and always has been that there i no opportunity to go straight to the league out of high school. College ball was meant to be something for kids to do in their free time while taking classes, now it’s semi pro ball.

And this is not the fault or should it be the problem of the NCAA or universities. The NFL is happy enough to let colleges deal with this problem and have a free farm/recruit league that they don’t have to manage.

This would be like NFL teams having their entire rosters be unrestricted free agents every season, and no salary caps. Could you imagine how terrible the play would be with so much turnover that no one has been there long enough to learn the play book. And it would be that way for everyone, execution would be horrific on both sides, making the game borderline unwatchable.

I get the impression that the NCAA has basically given the middle finger to everyone. The schools work to undermine the NCAA, the sports media blames the NCAA for every problem, the Supreme Court and the federal government routinely threaten to bury the NCAA, and politicians are constantly attacking it too, so they've effectively said "fine, you want burn it up so bad, go ahead, torch the whole thing."

I can't say I blame them, if that's the case. If people (and really the media empires extracting profit from their TV contracts) are so hellbent on setting fire to college sports, and no one else is willing to stop those people, then at some point why bother? Nuts to it.

Please, the NCAA has brought this all on themselves. Many of these issues happened because of the NCAA and a ton of senseless silly rules. They could have prevented a lot of this by working to open up opportunities for players. Or they could have let the boosters at these power 5 schools pay kids or give them jobs instead of trying to do the impossible and monitor it all and not having the resources to monitor your rules. And then handing out uneven and questionable rulings and giving the appearance of looking at some schools harder than others. We need a governing body but the NCAA brought a ton of this on themselves. The NCAA is far from innocent in all this, they actually caused a lot of this. GBO!

You probably aren’t going to be able to regulate NIL or transferring in a way that will survive judicial review without allowing the players to unionize and become employees of the schools.

It won't say it that directly. The contract will not require attendance at a school, but will require the athlete to attend weekly events in a specific city (near the school) in order to receive the funds. Failure to attend the events constitutes a breach of the contract. Thus the athlete most likely must stay at the school in order to be able to attend the events.

It's going to be really hard on coaches.

Once they recruit a player from early high school, they basically won't stop recruiting them until they finish their college eligibility or enter the draft.

If you look at Heupel, he's recruiting with the right intentions that will resonate with the kids who sign with us.

Agree with all this. In reality, like JH said in presser last week they need to define the transfer windows in a time frame that works for regular season and HS recruiting so coaches can actually spend more time with players they have on campus.

I'm more interested in the part where it stated on a trial basis schools can sign unlimited numbers so long as they don't exceed 85 player cap. We could have used that last year.

Just wait until the “haves” can sign unlimited numbers, 85 be damned!
That will be when the mega conferences descend upon us and squash the little guys out of existence.

I just want the guys in orange to win each week, I don't care where they played last week, or for that matter, where they are going to play next week

Understand and agree; I am not versed in contract law, but I have faith that if millions of dollars are involved that concept will be well controlled.

But what if they get a better NIL deal at another school and really don't care if their current deal becomes null and void?

If they sign away their rights to their NIL, that's a totally different thing. I don't know if that's the route that contracts are going, but it was rumored it was. If so, that means a player can only work with that company only, and couldn't sign a "better NIL deal."
