If a coach makes it a place the player wants to stay - he will stay. The players have control of what they do - not the coaches. As it should be.


I don't think it's awfulizing to point out various scenarios that can happen when rules aren't well thought out. None of what I suggested was an original thought by me, but situations postulated by national pundits. And I'm not sure if you're just being purposely obtuse , but I've said on numerous occasions I favor the ability to transfer and have choice for players, but with some way to limit the damage to programs , discourage tampering, and that doesn't ultimately lead to lower graduation rates; so your second sentence are your own thoughts not mine. Lastly I didn't realize that over 800 players all play for coaches who have no clue how to establish the kind of environments that players like, which pretty much by your statement includes every coach at the D-1 level . Now that's awfulizing.

I don't mind differing here, it's a huge debate in college basketball, and I don't discount your thoughts about the rights of athletes . But you offer no consideration of some of the potential problems and try to insinuate that any thoughts about those issues are simply those of people trying to enslave student-athletes or self-minded inept coaches . I think the issue is a little more complex than that.. But like I said it'll happen because this isn't about the NCAA trying to do what's right, this is about $$. It's costing them huge dollars and man power to look at tons of waivers every year and the fact they have done so inconsistently is opening them up to future litigation.

College basketball will survive most likely as it always does and only time will tell whether it was an insightful change or created more problems than it solved.

It's always about the money.

No doubt coaches don't the transfer rule to pass. It makes things uncertain. Many don't handle uncertainty well. Control is what they crave.

Welp. This is completely un-suprising but it hurts the league.

Also probably takes Valpo from a legitimate shot to finish in the top half to Thursday. Good times.

The best way (not foolproof of course) for MVC teams to keep its good players is to win.

Loyola, UNI, Bradley, etc haven't lost any good players to transfer recently. None that were high end guys. Teams that have are teams that haven't been winning enough.

Obviously its harder to win when your best players leave but sustaining success is the key to keeping players.

Valley has now lost 3 of it's top 8 returning players to transfer now in JFL, Robbins, and Deandre Williams.

That hurts the league overall big time.
