The NCAA Division I Board of Directors met virtually to discuss new rules around transfers and exemptions earlier this week, approving several sweeping changes which aims to add clarity for both players and coaches ahead of the upcoming academic season.
“The decision to adopt the transfer proposal today reflects the Board’s commitment to enacting transformational changes in college sports,” said Jere Morehead, president at University of Georgia and chair of the Board of Directors.
The NCAA established several different windows for student-athletes to announce their intentions to transfer— as well as give coaches a set time to evaluate prospects and look over the options properly.
