ESPN host Matt Schick put a tweet out today:

I spoke w/ an NCAA official this week who was "95% certain" transfers will soon be allowed to play immediately in basketball & football. Could be a one-time freebie, plus grad transfer option. So in theory, a student-athlete could play for three different schools w/o sitting out.

What I read from another article was the players have to have a certain GPA or have met certain academic requirements to be able to transfer without sitting out.

This will do nothing but make the rich, richer.

I have 10 to 12 points to make per game.

Could be the reality.  Mid majors find under-recruited talent and then lose them after a season or two.
