The NCAA inched a step closer to free agency this past week when the ACC joined the Bin Ten Conference in support of allowing athletes to transfer to another school without losing a year of eligibility. Currently, football and basketball players must sit out a year before becoming eligible. The proposed change would do away with that rule.
Of course the NCAA Board of Governors would have to approve the change; something that seems likely since the governing body instituted a change last season allowing football players, who have played in less than four games, to enter a transfer portal.
