Message: [QUOTE="CocoHusky, post: 3444100, member: 5823"] Just don't think there are going to be any additional restrictions like the ones you are proposing. It was interesting how this came (leaked) out like a trial balloon. The ACC got right out in front of this. I'm probably being skeptical here but I see some obstacles in the proposed restrictions. The proposed restrictions are: 1) In good academic standing and making progress towards degree completion. 2) Not facing suspension at their original school. 3) Receive a release to transfer. 1 is pretty straight forward and 2.0 GPA + % of credits achieved will probably be easy enough to measure. 2 is kind of interesting we'll call this one the Destiny Pitts rule. Pitts was facing a suspension at Minnesota and rather than take the suspension she decided to transfer. 3 Could be a little tricky though especially if the recent retransfer portal is eliminated. Under the transfer portal rules the school is "obligated" to enter the students name in the portal 48 hours after being notified that a SA has decided to transfer. What happens when a schools says no we are not releasing you from your scholarship agreement? That would put us back to the way things used to be with the S/A and the school negotiating -as in we will release you as long as you don't end up in our conference or playing for our main rival or that team that is already stacked which you would put over the top. Still think this is a done deal and will make for a very interesting (landscaping altering ) event ones it gets approved by NCAA Board of Governors in late April. [USER=7511]@oldude[/USER] was right when he was warning us that it was just too premature to talking about the starting lineup for next year. If I'm a hot shot player that thinks I can crack the UCONN starting lineup next season and help them win #12, the biggest obstacle to realizing that may be removed. [/QUOTE]
