are coming at some point with no sit out. And of course they are right. As Kirby said it will make required early AM gassers for skipping class an adventure or any sort of discipline if that comes about. Plus as he said every member of your signing class expects to start or get serious PT and new rules will hurt many kids who needs serious development. Mullen agreed and you can believe every other SEC coach does as well. Coaching the players will be an adventure. But the writer did go on to say Kirby's taking Maurice Smith with him when he left UA was the catalyst for change.

Change was coming long before smith left Bama. You should blame the grad transfer rule.

Why did Saban sign the transfer? He didn't have to.

That’s incredibly dumb considering Smith was a graduate transfer.

So Dan Mullen, a guy who was openly shopping himself for another job during the football season, and then didn't have the guts to have an honest conversation about it with the team he lied to two weeks prior about his future, and upon getting his new job, accepted a transfer from Ole Miss (Van Jefferson) and is fighting for him to be immediately eligible, is against this rule?
Dan should keep his mouth shut.

Man will teams be bitching when the best players from non-contending teams start grad transferring to Alabama to win a title.

Kirby's right. You can not have open transfer options to every player. You will have teams with 30 players because the others aren't starting.
I hear, ,mainly from the milennial crowd. Well if a coach can leave, so can players. No, the coach has earned the right to better himself and his family. When you have played, u have worked your way up to a head coach and paid your dues, you have earned the right to make those decisions. This, the players should be equal to the coach, is plain out dumb. In this life you EARN your right to make certain decisions and a 19 year old hasn't earned that. This whole deal is a milennial thing where I shouldn't have to pay my dues. It's sending college football down a road they don't need to go down.
Even in the pros, You can't choose to go to another team until your contract is up. Regardless of what the coach does.

Good. No more stockpiling and hoarding players.
Posted on 7/20/18 at 11:50 am to jimdog
I am fine with it if the HC leaves or gets fired.

Who really wants free agency? I think most people want grad transfers to be able to go where they want since they have their degree but anyone else has to sit if they go FBS to FBS. Makes sense to me.

A kid who has graduated should be able to go play immediately anywhere he desires.
underclassmen should have to sit a year.

My opinion is get rid of the whole student/athlete farce. If a booster wants to pay for a kid to go to his favorite U and walk on the team, he can pay his expenses and pay his salary too for all I care.

I like the grad transfer rule the way it was. If you graduated early, you should be able to transfer. I don't like coaches telling where they can't transfer to. Coaches go where they want and they signed a contract plus make millions.
