This has long been a topic of interest for Saban who is on the record as opposing what he considers free agency in college sports. He’s said that while noting this rule would more likely help Alabama than hurt his program.
“I think what’s going to happen as you see how often in a lot of leagues, you know the good players go to a good team and the bad players leave good teams because they’re not playing,” Saban said. “So is that going to make the rich get richer? I don’t know. You can decide that.”

Seems like it's going to be a lot of shenanigans next year.

The dude has been spot on about the direction the game has been heading for the last 10 years. People seem to think these rule changes have been making the game better but all they've been doing is making it worse and less interesting.

He's going to exploit the shite out of the rule for his benefit, but the NCAA can't say he didn't warn them.

Absolutely. There is going to be surreptitious "recruiting" of transfers by Power 5 Programs from other teams and from the top tier on other Power 5 programs. I can see a top 5 team needing a DE snagging one from a mid tier program.
Not as blatant as Happy Meals but it will happen.

He'll dominate this in the same way he dominates regular recruiting. Call any great player on a Group of 5 team or a Power-5 team that just fired their coach and tell them that they can immediately boost their profile and draft stock and compete for a National Championship
Oh....and youll get a Dodge Charger

I understand shite happens that is out of the kid’s control, but I’ll never see it any other way than a kid leaving when the going gets tough.

This rule also helps the best teams in high school recruiting.
In the past, a guy looking at going to Alabama who sees several five stars already at his position, may decide to commit elsewhere because he doesn't want to get buried on the depth chart for 3 years.
Now, why not try to compete at Bama and if it doesn't work out, use your transfer?
I don't think it's a coincidence that we seem to hear every year now - "This number 1 recruiting class is the best of all time"

I don't see. He can't talent now.
5 star not playing then 5 star gone.

Took a shot at the guys leaving a good team by calling them bad. Ha
