There appears to be a change on the horizon that could cause a seismic shift in the landscape of college football.
Imagine that when the yearly college coaching carousel begins to spin, scholarship athletes would be open to transfer with immediate eligibility and with few restrictions to whichever would take him, when his or her head coach left.
In a world where most schools are either ushering coaches out every four years or have become stepping stones themselves, that ability for a player to end his commitment to a school once that school has ended its commitment to his coach (or vice versa) is only fair.
