Pocketchange No. 2 Share Posted January 12 Now we just need a system in place where institutions can not contact coaches before the bowl game concluded and coaches are required to stay 2 years before they can quit their team. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Sousa No. 3 Share Posted January 12 This is good. It makes athletes think hard before jumping to another school. If they choose the wrong school out of high school, they get a Mulligan. If they choose wrong a second time, it's on them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least for head coaches... That's a hard sell to coordinators and position coaches. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyin Vee No. 5 Share Posted January 12 We have experienced coaches with more than a foot out the door. Do you really want them forced to stay another year? How about a heavy buyout AND the leaving coach pays 50% of their new salary for the length of the contract they had with the old school (out of their pocket no booster or other donations allowed). just spitballing.

Tandaian No. 6 Share Posted January 12 Kids will still move more than once. There are 2 criteria where they can get a waiver and still play the next season. 1) mental health issues and 2) a dangerous situation on campus. One could argue not getting playing time is causing mental health issues for a player. It hopefully will give some players a chance to think twice before moving on a second time, but I'm not sure it will slow down the transfers all that much.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 7 Share Posted January 13 The article below gives more info regarding the new guidelines. First, a player can receive immediate eligibility if they have a physical injury or mental health condition that pushed them to transfer from a school. Additionally, the NCAA will consider "exigent circumstances" that could force a player to leave an institution -- like sexual assault or abuse. No other factors will be considered, including academic considerations or playing time.
