Message: [QUOTE="CocoHusky, post: 3162787, member: 5823"] [B]Q:[/B] For example, why should a coach change automatically make a transfer eligible? Because the coach that recruited you and the one you agreed to play for is gone. You now have to make a decision if you want to play for someone who did not or might not have recruited you. [B]Q:[/B] Also, the losing school invested, supposedly, in the development of the player, why should they not have a say especially if that development is taken form them by a rival? [B]A:[/B] Because this is the rule for all other college students. Non-athletes transfer at a greater rate than NCAA athletes. When than bright young student in the Chemistry department at Mississippi State decides to transfer is there someone telling him or her no you can't go to Ole Miss? Should UCONN have been able to stop AEH from attending Mississippi States- you guys did ruin a perfect UCONN season. Should TN be able to say no to Westbrook because TN has a rivalry with UCONN-allegedly. [B]C: [/B]I would lean more toward an exception that considered playing time, if a player is not likely to play even a limited role in her present team game activities then should she be granted immediate eligibility. [B]R: [/B]I would oppose this. "Not likely to play even a limited role, should have been factored into the decision to attend that school in the first place not a transfer decision. My experience is that as part of the recruiting process there are candid discussions/projections of roles, starting, depth chart etc. If a player is not living up to their projected role why reward then? [B]C: [/B] Guess what I am saying is exceptions led to confusion and interpretation, either let all non graduate transfers be eligible or make them all sit out a year. [B]R:[/B] I agree that's why I proposing are black and white rules=no exceptions. [/QUOTE] [/QUOTE]
