[QUOTE="flyfishingfrog, post: 2543456, member: 70903"] The kid had the option of going to a school to compete with 4 years of previous recruits and his entire recruiting class. If we allowed sophomore and juniors to transfer without sitting out, then schools could literally target specific players to fill immediate holes without having to recruit 3 and hope 1 works out - so they could literally promise starting roles and/or high levels of playing time without it being a smoke screen because the coach knows he has an opening and the player can deliver. This is really the basic reason why scholarship limits were put in place only instead of a school having 100+ recruits sitting in the stands to ensure they have the cream of the crop on the field - they can now just pick the cream after seeing another school take the risk. It would basically be the equivalent of the entire NFL being free agents every year - can you imagine how much better and for how long New England would be under a system like that? or if you believe in pay for play - how high the "salaries" would become for proven winners on the field?
