Recruiting college freshmen would be the biggest thing if you can only transfer once
How can you legally restrict an individual from seeking an education at different universities while also playing sports for those universities?

None of this will fly.

I've had the idea that you should be a bit tighter and more punitive on the transfer. If you transfer, great., but you have to sit out 6 games in your first year and those 6 games have to be consecutive and have to begin at the midway point in the season.

Also, no more buyouts for coaches. You get fired, you get a severance equal to one year of your negotiated contract. Also, I would ban paying freshmen or recruits any NIL money until they produce or prove they could produce.

Yes, adding government is the answer

You don’t seem to realize this, but NCAA has lost all ability to govern their sports. NCAA is not respected and no one follows or acknowledges their rules. At the same time, the two biggest clown rules in sports history passed (NIL and instant transfers). It is mayhem in college sports.

Federal government getting involved, I think this may be the best thing they’ve done for my life in 20 years.

I do not see how this can pass legal muster though.

You are essentially asking the federal government to force an individual, potentially against their will, to work for/attend a certain school.

You cannot do that.

The cat is out of the bag.

Members of Congress don’t actually write bills. All of that stuff can be worked out in committee and with legislative staff actually writing the technical details. They are going to have hearings in June on it supposedly. It could be a debacle, struck down by the courts, etc., or it could actually be an improvement over the current disaster. Whining about them making an attempt to even go down this path is pretty dumb at this stage.

You’re probably triggered because it’s co-sponsored by Cruz though.

Nah didn't really care about that but listen to him fail to grasp a very obvious follow up question and I'm not sure how anyone can believe he knows what he's talking about

Lets just make it simple for everyone, whatever cheating tackticks saban, oats, and all the other gump coaches have been doing for years is now banned! Nil is fine, but no more paying players directly like saban would do at the airports with dufle bags. And no more sneaking back to the college game like dirty mr oats tried this year. Lets bring back the pureness of the college game like the founding fathers of the ncaa wanted!


LSU, ya'll need to transfer in some posters that can post/troll better than this BS. Have some pride FFS.

So now the federal government is making laws about when a person can get a new job? What’s next you cannot fire people during Christmas season.

This shite isn’t serious, they know it won’t stand up.

Exactly.

This isn’t legal in any way, and everyone knows it.

This is pandering to millionth degree.
