One year penalty for transferring within the SEC was tabled.

Feels like some presidents actually talked

So they approved new rules…with exceptions to those rules. I’m sure it will clear everything up.

So why can’t schools sign players to multiple year contracts only breakable by refunding the Revenue Share? Seems like they could lock in a lawsuit proof ironclad contract if worded correctly and signed by Players and Their Agents/Attorneys.

They can and do. The Michigan QB is on a 4-year, $10M contract. Problem there is he sucks & the contract makes it difficult to bench him. And you’re stuck with 2-1/2 more years on the contract either way.

Kind of like Ryan Silverfield

This proposed rule is a bad idea unless all the Power 4 Conferences do it together for transfers within the Power 4.

That sounds like a good idea in theory but reality is a bit different. First of all the only teams that need to do this are second tier and the only players these teams will want to secure with such a deal are those with multiple P5 offers. These are also the players that will respond to such a request by telling that team to pound sand then sign with a blue blood.

The players likely to go for such a deal are those who are promising but with fewer options and something still to prove. Teams are going to hesitate from chaining themselves to such players for 4 years and millions of dollars lest they not pan out.
