The one-time transfer rule for athletes in all sports has been approved by the NCAA's Division Council, source tells @TheAthletic. Athletes in all sports will be able to transfer once and be immediately eligible.
(This isn't official until end of Thursday's meeting.)

Notification dates passed, too, source tells @TheAthletic. In normal years, will be a May 1 deadline for fall/winter-sport athletes to tell their schools they're transferring & a July 1 deadline for spring-sport athletes.

It is crazy how my interest in college sports has cratered over the last year. The closer it gets to a minor league the less I care.

The NCAA will be dead by 2030. Few will be sad to see it go

College basketball has become a joke with all the transfers. It's basically free agency at this point. I read every P6 school except 3 have had at least one transfer this offseason.
Get ready to see it in football as well. P5 schools will be hard recruiting any players that have breakout years as a freshman or sophomore at G5 schools.
Recruiting will be easier on coaches now, they can just use actual game film at the college level and pick off kids who may have been under recruited out of high school.

Too bad they didn't apply it to that football player two years ago that transferred back home (maybe VaTech) to help his mom with cancer care.
...yet let Justin Fields get a waiver the same year.

I don't like this at all. From my experience as a collegiate athlete 10-14 years ago, the freshmen who would come in and would not immediately start and complain about it were dime a dozen. It's a good thing they didn't leave.
A lot of kids take a while to whip into shape to where they can become coachable. My collegiate athletic days were at the dawn of social media, nothing like it is now, so less "look at me" social media clout chasers. I couldn't imagine what it would be like today.
Gary Patterson was a tough coach to play for, tough but fair. With free for all transfers I bet a lot of guys who I witnessed receive his wrath as freshmen would have transferred out.
I think those who have most to lose here are coaches who are no nonsense, hard nosed types who don't put up with bullshite. You're going to have athletes who would rather play for a coach who is their friend rather than coach because they don't want their fee fees hurt.

I just don't understand why they would do this. Terrible for college sports.

At the end of the day, I'm for it. If coaches can just pack up and leave for a multimillion deal at another school, then why should the player be almost bound to his original school if he doesn't believe he's been given a fair shot, or they recruited someone who is a superstar at his position, but he could otherwise be a star on another team.
However, this will clearly put these primadonnas fully in charge of college athletics. Coaches will find themselves recruiting the same players for four years and having to cater to their every whim and tantrum. Discipline will almost become a thing of the past because coaches (and colleges as a whole) will fear losing several players if they dare to raise their voices.
ETA: Having said all of that, in this new rule there should be another rule that says coaches (even assistant coaches) that leave for another school are prevented from taking a transfer from the school they left. A coach shouldn't be able to possibly decimate his previous school by taking all the best players from that school.

I like it, a commitment should mean something and this is a good compromise, a one-time transfer rule ensures that commitments still matter while still enabling student-athletes to transfer to a school and start anew if the first commitment doesn’t work out, good move by the NCAA

What if your not happy with the surgery and want to transition back?

I wonder if this actually helps some G5 Schools to a point. They can recruit kids and offer immediate playing time with player knowing he can transfer if he blows up.

SunBelt conference going to benefit from this... the logistics just right for them to load up on SEC transfers... Bowden and Rich Rod going to be amazing at ULM
