The NCAA’s Division I executive board officially ratified new transfer rules Monday that will allow all undergraduate athletes to transfer schools and play immediately, regardless of how many times they've transferred schools in the past. The guidelines will provide athletes who transferred during the 2023-24 academic year immediate eligibility as long as they are both academically eligible to compete and meeting degree requirements at their new school. The new rules go into effect immediately and were approved by the Division I council last week. The NCAA will no longer limit the amount of times that athletes can transfer schools. Previously, athletes were allowed to transfer one time and play immediately, but they had to sit out a full year if they transferred schools a second time without a waiver. The two transfer windows are still in place with the new ruling, and players can’t transfer schools in the middle of the year and play for their new school in the same season. www.msn.com/en-us/sports/other/ncaa-officially-ratifies-new-rules-allowing-athletes-to-transfer-multiple-times-and-still-be-immediately-eligible/ar-AA1ntL2a |

How long before “student athletes” can just show up with a transcript in hand at a game and auction themselves off to the highest bidder to decide which team to play for? The NCAA and college administrators have become totally gutless. Sorry.

So pretty much they made transferring even easier. NCAA is just ruining collegiate athletics.

Look, as it now stands, D1 MBB for mid major programs is as dead as a doornail.
Don't kid youself, Bonas and other mid majors can not and will not compete with the corrupt NIL money pouring into MBB athletes from the Power 6 schools.
Bonas and other schools will now be faced with the key question from MBB athletes, and that question is not about what a great education will I receive, but instead "how much money are you going to pay me to go to your tiny school, in a beautiful but rural area of forlorn upstate New York" (better make it worth my effort.....hint, hint!).
Total and complete NCAA corruption. Its time for all mid majors to unite and fight this abuse.
I will continue to give cash to the BAF, but not one cent to the corruption of the NIL.

I used to kid about Four (Fo) Chapman, who played for a different school over four varsity seasons.
Now, he's not alone. Today it's have NIL, will travel...

The consensus among basketball pundits is that every year will be a rebuild for the mid-majors because of the NIL. The TV money will chase the P5 schools who buy all the best players. I wonder if schools will pay for player visits. Schmidt will need to increase his scouting travel budget to try and stay relevant.

If it's the budget then he has to spend that money on things other than himself. Instead he'll lobby for another base salary increase...he deserves it  BOHICA |

You’re right though. I don’t think laying big money to coaches is going to effective way to keep a program competitive as a mid major anymore. Recruiting budget and NIL money matter more than coaching or facilities now.

St. Bonaventure cannot and should not get caught up in the pay to play. We don’t have the resources. We are a place of learning first. Players who chase money will need to weigh the value of an education vs. $$.

The split in college athletics is coming and coming fast. It will be the big schools against schools like us that can't afford or will refuse to pay the players these ridiculous dollars. Very sad indeed, but I think it will eventually blow up in their faces as people are not going to want to root for teams that are paying their players. They know it won't be REAL college basketball and that they will rather watch something that is more genuine. Not sure when that will all come about, but it is not that far away.
Just a shame that they've wrecked college basketball as we've known and grown up with. Just like the rest of society. Greed is destroying it and I think there is also an agenda to destroy the American way of life as we've known it. That's another conversation all together.
