Just five days after the SEC passed a rule against taking transfers who'd had "serious misconduct" issues at their previous school, there's already talk of exceptions ... and that talk is coming from the coach of the school that proposed the rule.
Georgia coach Mark Richt said Tuesday at a Pigskin Preview event in Macon, Ga., that he is hoping the SEC has some "discretion" in applying the rule, which passed last Friday at the conference's spring meetings. Specifically, the league prohibited the acceptance of transfers who'd been involved in domestic violence, sexual assault or other crimes related to sexual violence at their previous institution.
