With that said, I think you should be able to sign and break that signing anytime you want. In the end, this is a freaking game...not life and death. It is like non-compete contracts in business...f#*k that. That is the dumbest thing ever. So you think players should be able to leave the school anytime they want? Spring? Fall camp? During the season? s#!t Nebraska would never be able to field a team. Maybe field a team of Nebraska walk-ons. 1 Quote Link to comment

Then again with the scandal that was just revealed, other schools probably just thought they were already under contract. 2 Quote Link to comment

No sitting out or anything like that. Quote Link to comment

Just like if a kid with a full ride for being smart transferred...he/she would get to start working on his/her cancer cure at the new school right away with their full ride. The football player should be able to do the same. Quote Link to comment

Never in life do you just get to do what you want when you want. Having kids attend 4 different colleges cause they change their mind every year would be a horrible life lesson Quote Link to comment

I would guess that the since everyone at college is there for learning (in one way shape or form) that the % is very high of students that transfer. I transfered. Quote Link to comment

A chemistry student doesn’t have a team of ten coaches and 100 other players relying on him as a team mate. So, according to you, a player on one team should be able to jump ship in the middle of the season to another. If Alabama loses an RB to injury, they could’ve talked Ameer to switch teams in October. I would have absolutely no desire to get emotionally invested as a fan. Hey, it would free up more time in the fall. Sorry, your idea is idiotic. Quote Link to comment
