So these guys don’t have to sign a binding letter of intent anymore then?
is that old news?
Actually has more to do with SEC recently reaffrming its rule against intraconference transfers.
And yes, the NLI is no more. Abolished in 2024.
Interesting. So the only thing binding players to a school is the NIL and just basic school enrollment deadlines.
That seems like a problem.
but!! If the NCAA members refuse to make the players employees with contracts then why wouldn’t this type of behavior continue?
This whole “system” is a screwed up mess. Killing my interest in anything college athletics.

It is out of control and I agree it’s hurting the fans.
I don’t mind the transfer portal but it can’t stay the Wild West.
There needs to be a two way commitment between the players and the schools for a year.
Is that too much to ask??
Mitchell’s about face in order to avoid SEC penalties makes me wonder what Micah Handlogten is going to do since he just announced he was transferring from Florida to Ole Miss. Hmm…
