Why do players transfer to a small mid-major in DIA over going to a DIAA and playing right away? I would understand going to a big mid-major or another BCS program and waiting a year, but why would want to go to an Arkansas State over say Jacksonville State (closer to his home anyway).

If a guy is transferring out due to playing time/depth chart issues, a future in pro football is probably not in the cards for him, so that may not be his #1 priority in picking a school to transfer to. ASU isn't exactly Harvard, but it's a better school than JSU.
