But to let a guy transfer 4 times in 4 years and never sit out is just lunacy. I mean it's free agency without a salary cap. It's like a guy signing a 4 yr deal with the Grizzlies and then deciding that he doesn't want to play for them after a year and just signs with the Lakers in the offseason. We went from no power with the players to all the power is with the players. The pendulum swung too far. The school has to have some power of these kids. They need to be signing contracts. And either you sign a 1 yr, 2 yr, etc. But you and the school are bound to that contract. So if you want to transfer, you have to pay the buyout and if the school wants to cut you then they have to buy out the contract. We just need to end the fallacy of student athletes, none of these kids are students anymore. They're employees. There's no way a kid like AJ Storr has any chance to graduate. He will be on his 3rd school next year....IN 3 YEARS.
This is why I am very rapidly losing interest in college athletics.
