Rules for portal

Need to be changed with limits of 5 transfers, this is having a negative effect on college football. Also, need a 7 day time period to enter portal each year after the season is over.

Nah. How about players sign 1 to 4 year deals out of HS. If a team wants to poach a player before his contract is up, their boosters have to pay the remainder of his deal to his current team's boosters

Is that 5 transfers per player? A player should be able to transfer whenever he wants and as many times as he wants just like people working fast food can change jobs whenever they want. It is a free country.

That is how scholarships where I work are administrated. For each year of school we pay for you owe us a year of service, else they pay an exit/buyout fee. That's roughly how the service academies work too. If a player wants out of their scholarship they should have to pony up a pre-defined amount of cash to buy themselves out. This is a business after all.

If you're living in a world where we can place significant restrictions on transferring, why not just restore the rule where you have to sit out a year if you transfer?

Feels like that would be much more effective than a five per team transfer limit, which would decimate teams who have a lot of players leaving after a coaching change.

Agreed. I think the NCAA can limit the schools, who have entered into an agreement, just not the players for NIL, etc.

Yes, agreed on that. My speculation for why they are not, and why they have removed most transfer rules, is that they still want to ban direct payment of players by schools at all costs.

If they treat the football players more like normal students, then they probably have a better chance of that ban holding up in court. And free movement is a huge part of treating players like normal students -- normal students would never be prevented from taking place in an extracurricular activity just because they transferred schools.
 
as much as I don’t like what it’s doing to CFB or how the one and done kids have killed hoops I can’t get past the fact that if someone is willing to pay you to do a job you should be able to do it.

Cool, then the school (employer) should also be able to fire them whenever they want in said free country. So now we’ve got kids dropping out of school mid semester b/c they can’t afford it without a scholarship. America.

Or, we could realize this is a more complicated system than a McDonalds and make some more intelligent, appropriate rules. Player contracts seem logical at this point. Just model it after NFL since it’s essentially an uncapped pro league now anyway.

Sign a contract for a set number of years. Allow trades (including $). And let these kids know that they’ve opened the door to the potential of getting shipped around the country and/or dropped completely as long as contracts are honored. If they’re gonna get the perks of getting paid then they should also have to live with the potential consequences.
 
lol. There’s not going to be any more stuffy “Rules”. That’s Old Fashioned. This is the “ME” generation Grandad. It’s all about ME and $$$.

I think that student-athletes are not normal students. That’s why the hyphen. They have committed to play for a school that has invested mucho denaro in them, so something like a no compete might be in order. If they want to be treated like employees, and have the right to move around, schools should have the right to limit subsequent movement. For example, they can move but only to a lower division. Or only to another conference. Or maybe only to a team not on our schedule in your span of playing years.
