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.

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.

At least for head coaches... That's a hard sell to coordinators and position coaches.

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.

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.

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.
