Re: 5 Potential Effects of Proposed Transfer Exception

Great post CLK. I recently heard an interview with Hugs. He said I would hate to be a mid-major coach with the recent transfer rule change. BUT he also said mid-majors who transfer up to the power Five basically have no significant impact. The kid who left William & Mary., Pierce, never contributed to NorthCarolina who had a down year. Secondly, the Power five kids who transfer down to mid-majors also fail to have a significant impact. Would love to see some statistics. I do however, believe Hugs.

Re: 5 Potential Effects of Proposed Transfer Exception

CLK, thanks.  Although this is a small sample size, I found this to be interesting:
"A year ago, 14 different mid-major players who averaged in double-figures at mid-major programs during the 18-19 season opted to use the graduate transfer rule to commit to high-major teams. None averaged in double-figures last year."
This doesn't take into account players who transferred and had to sit out a year; just those players who graduated and moved on to another program.

Re: 5 Potential Effects of Proposed Transfer Exception

I really thought the comments on tampering were very interesting.  This comment in particular about handshake lines being home visits.

 While this is already going on at a high level in college basketball, it would instantly reach another level if transfers were allowed to play immediately without a penalty. "Handshake lines" would become home visits, one high-major assistant said recently. “We’d be recruiting off each other’s teams every single day.”

Re: 5 Potential Effects of Proposed Transfer Exception

This is another in a long-line of NCAA decisions directed at destroying the Mid-Majors ability to compete with P-5 teams on the rare occasions when they actually play each other.  This works to accommodate the P-5 in two ways; the obvious ability to poach the best players from Mid-Majors and makes it much more convenient for them to jettison their recruiting mistakes; and quickly get those scholarships back. 
It always pissed-off the P-5 that Mid Majors could build a roster of juniors and seniors that would kick their ass; despite all the money they were spending paying off their top 50 recruits with large payoffs.  So now the P-5 can go shopping at other D-1 programs to fill roster spots while ensuring they will finally escape the embarrassment of losing to someone like Northern Iowa. 
The spineless, money hungry NCAA administrators like Emmert just suck the teet of the P-5 to keep themselves swimming in $$.  They are foul and disgusting parasites, who really have no place in college athletics.  Mid Majors should get out of the NCAA, form their own governing body; with its own championship; screw the P-5 and the NCAA.

The NCAA stopped caring about college athletics long ago. Any moves they've made in the last several years have been nothing but self-preservation and keeping the cash cow happy so the money keeps coming in. If anyone leaves it will be the power 5 schools, and they'd take the great majority of the NCAA's money with them.

The P5 has the NCAA by the gonads. The only reason the P5 hasn't left the NCAA is fear that Congress would get involved if certain schools were left out. This was one of the forces that drove the last batch of conference jumping. There were too many schools (Pitt, Syracuse, and WVU among them), that were long established major football schools, but were in danger of being left out of the mix, because they weren't in one of the major football conferences. The moves were made to ensure that these schools would remain with the majors, as they knew all hell would have broken loose if these schools would have basically been kicked out of D1. Congress would have certainly gotten involved. The only question now, would be whether or not to let the AAC tag along. I'm sure they'd rather leave them out, but they'll do whatever is necessary to keep the heat off. They will then replace March Madness with their long dreamed of double elimination tourney, probably with 32 teams, that will ensure blue bloods in the Final Four most years.
