NCAA Rejects Graduate Transfer Rule with 2 Year Minimum Commitment

The NCAA actually did something right for once as they struck down the proposal of having graduate transfers count toward the scholarship total for 2 years in football and basketball.

Here is the report from Kentucky.com:

A proposal to require a graduate transfer to count against a team’s scholarship total for two years in football and basketball has been rejected by the NCAA.

The Division I Council on Friday voted down a proposal that could have tapped the brakes on the de facto free agency created by a rule originally intended to give athletes more freedom to pursue graduate degrees.
