Intraconference transfers

with NIL now the insta play transfer needs to be done away with. If you want to transfer you need to sit out a year like it use to be...

I think it’s fair if you wanna transfer to another conference and immediately play though.

I think this is actually a good rule.

Wingo worked out for us & so did the 2 Arky db's, but I think this would be good for the conference in the long run.

Did you post this when we got Denver Harris? Even though we lose Tolan, the portal has been our saving grace

It sucks, but LSU has been the beneficiary of it (where would the 22 team have been without Wingo and Brooks?).

I don't see things changing anytime soon.

Think long term though when LSU will slump or not be as competitive as we’d like and the athletes want out more than in. You’d want this rule in place then. You can’t pick and choose when it’s best.

If we're losing more to the portal than we can replace, it's more likely coaching failure than fickle talent.

Even with a wide open transfer portal we should be able to field a competent 2 deep at every position, because if you make a 2 deep here, you will get significant snaps in the SEC. How well we do at developing specific positions should have some determination in how deep we are past that.

Even if you include the disastrous covid season, we have taken way more out of the portal than lost.

Or make them sit a year.

Again, that will mean players will go outside the SEC. There is no way the SEC leadership will allow that.

Make the transfer window to one day or a weekend (the weekend after the NCG), in which the player has to announce during that brief time and then the pool is then set for the schools to recruit the transfers and have them officially sign on the second signing date in February. The only exception will be with a coaching change.

At least this would provide the school with sort of a protection on roster management so that they can fill needed spots lost to the portal.

I'm fine with giving 1 free transfer to wherever, but if you want to transfer again you have to sit out unless you have degree. At some point college athletics needs to be about college somewhat. None of these guys going to 3 different schools in 3 years is progressing academically right unless they get a degree between there.

I'll never understand how we went so quickly from sit out a year unless grad transfer to 1 free transfer "due to covid" to "fk it, you want 5 schools in 5 years, go for it"
