Unfortunately I agree, this seems like an instance where the programâs best interests and the playerâs best interests arenât necessarily aligned. NIL payments make that gap even wider.

I think Blissâ contribution next year is really interesting. London, Ty, Kihei, Reece all started or heavily contributed as true 1st years while Bliss has a year of practice as a RS. But the first 4 had a vet PG (I count Brogdon for London) to mentor them during their first season. At the moment Bliss doesnât have that.

Lol at the replies getting in their feelings about Oumar Ballo being randomly picked as an example.
This is the last season of the automatic grad transfers from Ivy League schools (I think), not sure the crop of potential guys looks amazing, especially because thereâs a translation factor that you need to apply mentally to how they look at the power conference level. I filtered the list of seniors here:
Allocco from Princeton is probably the most interesting guy on the list to me.

Is there any real smoke to Harris or Rohde transferring, or is that just speculation? Both have used their free transfer already, correct?
Players can transfer unlimited times now.

Without sitting or needing a waiver? I must be living under a rock
Yeah, a WV player sued and won and the NCAA waved the white flag.

Would Harris have his no-sit transfer anyway since he redshirted when he transferred here?
Harris would have been pretty much stuck here until graduation. Since he redshirted, which you can only do once outside of a medical redshirt, he would have not only had to sit out after transferring a second time but would lose a year of eligibility while sitting.
NowâŚno problem basically. Two-time transfers might still officially need to get a waiver but they wonât turn anyone down. Even if the case is settled later allowing the NCAA rules to stand, theyâll still need to grant the waivers to players who decided to transfer in the current environment.

And that differs from the last 2 seasons in Charlottesville how?
Sometimes I think about the big man from Ball State who went from being two-time all-conference to riding the bench on a mediocre Indiana team that has too many bigs. Like, does he wish he maybe had that decision back?
