The NCAA didn't start cracking down on the second transfer until after Cook entered the portal and came to LSU.


That's not true at all.

The NCAA announced in January they were going to limit the 2x transfer waivers. The then published guidelines in March generally discussing the reasons they would or would not grant a waiver. Cook entered the portal in late March. He then announced he was transferring to LSU on April 7th. EVERYONE involved had knowledge of the NCAA's position at that time.

Cook and LSU took a shot anyway. It didn't work out

That's a fair point and I could have worded it better, but a lot of coaches and players thought the NCAA would be lenient on the second time transfer waivers. They have proven not to be.

How strict the NCAA would be did not start revealing itself until August when football transfers started being denied.
