NCAA To Allow One Time Autmatic Transfer For All D1_Athletes

[Omega]

All Division I student-athletes will have a one-time opportunity to transfer and compete immediately beginning in the 2021-22 academic year, if legislation adopted by the Division I Council is ratified by the Division I Board of Directors. The board meets April 28.

The Council met via videoconference today and Wednesday.

The Council expanded the one-time transfer exception to all sports, which means student-athletes who play baseball, football, men’s and women’s basketball, and men’s ice hockey have the same chance as all other student-athletes to transfer and play right away. If ratified by the board, the change is effective for student-athletes who have not transferred before and want to compete at a new school as early as this fall.

This will make for the same transfer rule for all D1 athletes. The rule will end the NCAA charade of approving transfers and is fair to the athletes. Coaches will have to adapt .
