The Triple Option: Let’s Talk About Anything Except Schedules

There’s going to be one thousand articles written about scheduling changes. Let’s talk about something different.

Currently, all NCAA sports except for football, basketball, baseball and hockey allow student-athletes to transfer schools once without having to sit out of competition for a year.

The NCAA Division 1 Council is working on developing a “comprehensive legislative package” that would make eligibility rules uniform.

As The Athletic’s Max Olson notes, the football oversight committee discussed “transfer windows” Thursday in anticipation of one-time transfer exceptions becoming the norm.

Interesting note from the Football Oversight Committee's meeting yesterday: they discussed concepts like transfer windows or deadlines if a one-time transfer exception is approved.
