I agree with Bill, no transfers to a program on your next year’s schedule. There should also be some limit to numbers allowed to transfer in any calendar year. Overall, I am not a fan of this proposal.
Me too. Colin Peek was royally screwed, Paul Johnson even said TE didn't exist in his system anymore and the NCAA basically told him "so what?". Total shame.I can get behind this. Look at a guy like Collin Peak that only played one year at Alabama because Paul Johnson told him Georgia Tech wouldn't use a TE like him.
Or maybe some kind of academic kicker, where if you are so high in GPA you go to the front of the line and maybe have a limit like was mentioned as well.NC2A would have to allow additional scholarships to teams that lost players if they implement this OR else a team could be stripped of enough players to compete.
For instance, if 10 players leave they'd have to allow them to sign 35 the next recruiting cycle.
Or on the next year's schedule.....The only change I would love to see if a player wants to transfer it cannot be to another program in the same conference, no exceptions.
Really, numbers limited, imagine about 5-6 years ago you are playing for Penn State, and then...I agree with Bill, no transfers to a program on your next year’s schedule. There should also be some limit to numbers allowed to transfer in any calendar year. Overall, I am not a fan of this proposal.
_lol:_lol:_lol:_lol:_lol:_lol:_lol:_lol:Reading the proposal, I see a loophole for schools who want to get rid of their coach and keep the players. It doesn't say the player can transfer if the coach passes away. So to you AD's out there looking to make a change, make it look like an accident. :wink:
But in that case they deserved to get hit like that. I think they didn't get hit hard enough...Really, numbers limited, imagine about 5-6 years ago you are playing for Penn State, and then...
The school did - not sure that the players should have to suffer in that kind of disaster.But in that case they deserved to get hit like that. I think they didn't get hit hard enough...
No one can tell them where they can or can't attend university. The student athlete picks where he wants to attend. If he does not like it, he can always transfer to another university and sit out one year. It is simple and fair just like it is, but this is another situation where people want to act like these kids are held against their will by some evil regime and that their civil liberties are being trampled upon. Meanwhile, every other student on campus would love to have the benefits these kids receive.As a fan, I hate the idea. Can you imagine what the possible exodus might look like, for example, when Coach Saban retires? Especially if the coordinator they all love isn't hired or something like that? Leaving for the draft early is bad enough. I don't want to think of it.
All that said, I do try to remember these are kids the same age as my own two kids. I don't want anyone telling them where they can and can't go to college, if the new college accepts them. But mine aren't scholarship athletes either.
There's nothing ideal about that at all. May be you should add their host when they are on campus to the list? If they leave, time to hit the road...Ideally, it should be for the Head Coach, the Coordinator over the players position, the player's position coach, and in the case of recruits, their primary recruiter.
Umm, no they don't. Coaches have to honor scholarships, they can't just show up and kick the useless players off the team.Every signee who was recruited by a fired (or resigning) coach should have the option to shop around, IMO.
Certainly, the coaches all have that option - why not the players, provided minimal and logical limits are maintained.
