The transfer regulations for college basketball and football have been held to a different standard than that of the other collegiate sports.
For example, transfers that have joined the Syracuse football and Syracuse basketball programs in the past have been forced to sit out a year.
Players like Elijah Hughes, Trishton Jackson, Abdul Adams were forced to miss a year and now currently former Florida offensive lineman Chris Bleich is trying to avoid it.
On Monday afternoon that possibility has become closer to reality when the ACC released a statement on transfer opportunity:
“During the league’s annual winter meetings (February 12 through 14), the ACC discussed the transfer environment and unanimously concluded that as a matter of principle we support a one-time transfer opportunity for all student-athletes, regardless of sport.
