After long last, the NCAA finally approved the long-awaited transfer rule, allowing players a one-time transfer without having to sit out and use a year of eligibility.
Spoiler: this is not going to solve each and every problem. It is not going to curb the number of players who enter the transfer portal each year. In fact, it will likely increase the number of athletes who intend to transfer. However, in many ways, that is not the point. After years of college football flaws hurting the student-athletes, any shortcomings or challenges in the NCAA rulings will now error on the side of benefiting the players.
