I heard it was grades.

Hopefully this counts as an extra we can get

This makes no sense. It's one thing to go pro, it's another to enter the portal.

If the rumours of the lack of classroom attendance/application are true, the transfer portal means nothing :dunno:

I thought to enter the portal you had to be in good academic standing at your current school?

This term's grades haven't been posted ...

Yes....But all these rumors from some media types and post from posters say grade issues...don't like to attend class etc....so how do all these people know :laugh:

One-Time Transfer Exception Criteria for 2021-22 Enrollment
Q1: What criteria does the student-athlete need to meet in order to utilize the new Division I one-time exception to seek immediate transfer eligibility?
A1: In order to meet the criteria of the one-time transfer exception, the student-athlete must:
• Transfer from a four-year collegiate institution to an NCAA Division I school;
• Leave their current four-year school academically eligible;
• Have not transferred previously from another four-year institution, and
• Certify in writing, along with their new head coach, they did not have direct or indirect communication with the new school’s athletics staff prior to entering the NCAA Transfer Portal.

Additionally, a student-athlete must provide their current school with a written request to enter the NCAA Transfer Portal by July 1, 2021 (all sports) to use the one-time exception. Other rules (e.g., disciplinary suspension at the previous school, transferable credits accepted by your new school, sport specific midyear transfer rules) may also factor into the campus compliance administrator’s certification of transfer eligibility.

Academic Eligibility
Q5: How does a student-athlete know if they will be academically eligible at the time they prepare to transfer from their current school?
A5: Student-athletes will want to seek assistance from their campus compliance administrator to ensure whether this one-time transfer exception will apply to their specific transfer situation prior to requesting entrance to the NCAA Transfer Portal.

Q6: Are there other eligibility requirements a student-athlete must consider?
A6: Like all Division I student-athletes, an incoming transfer student-athlete will also need to meet minimum academic progress requirements at their new school to be eligible to compete. The requirements an individual student-athlete must meet depends on how far along they are in their degree progression, their sport, and the time of transfer (e.g., fall versus midyear). Compliance and academic staff at schools a student-athlete is considering will be able to help the student-athlete understand if they are on track to meet the necessary academic requirements

Thank you...what I thought

Hopefully this transfer portal craziness will go back to normal transfer rules eventually. It's making college football too difficult to follow who's got who anymore.

The transfer portal is here to stay, imo.  In fact, I think it is much more likely that the rules on transfers will relax even more instead of becoming more stringent.  I really hope that is not the case, but its what I think is likely to happen.

The ability to transfer at any point during the season is what needs to change IMO. Transfers should only be allowed at the end of the season, or establish a specified period during the season (1 week) so a coach doesn't have to wonder who he's got to play with week to week.     :powert:     :patriot:

Personally, I don’t like it at all. I think if you want to transfer, for any reason, you should have to sit a year (no exceptions), imo.

It just begs for teams to start recruiting transfers. They are already doing it. Pretty soon they will be going after transfers as intensely as they do high school players. Just asks for shady dealings. And no school is above it.

It seems to be mostly him missing his kid

If it's about him missing his kid good for him. Regardless, hopefully things work out for all parties.

Hyams said this morning (yeah I know) that the parting was mutual and that he was disruptive in the locker room
