A new story in The New York Times says the NCAA will vote on whether or not to implement a new rule change that could penalize programs in men’s basketball, women’s basketball and football for taking in a grad transfer. The rule would take away a scholarship if a graduate transfer did not earn a secondary degree within one year:
In two weeks, the N.C.A.A.’s primary legislative body, the Division I Council, will vote on a measure that could severely restrict graduate transfers. The proposed rule change would require that colleges accepting graduate transfers be docked a scholarship the next year if the transfer does not earn his secondary degree within a year.
