If a player gets in the transfer portal you can’t transfer to a team in the same conference. Didn’t this use to be a rule when transferring?

Sounds familiar, Southern. I'm really not sure. If so, was it an NCAA rule or maybe a conference policy?

Yes, it used to be a rule but not an NCAA rule. RIP is right, it was a policy imposed by each of the conferences. If a kid wanted to transfer from Indiana to Northwestern, they had to be granted a release by Indiana based on the Big Ten's policy. All of the Power 5 conferences had it at one point and got rid of it... I believe the SEC was the last to do so in 2021. So now there's no rule against it, kids can transfer to any school they like regardless of conference.
I think both Cade McNamera and Eric All just transferred from Michigan to Iowa if I'm not mistaken.
You are correct Sir.
Remember the first game of the season. Purdue receiver number 15. Jones I believe transferred in from Iowa. He had a nice game. Him and the quarterback played together in pee wee through high school
2 things I’d like changed to the rules of the transfer portal is you can’t transfer to a school in the same conference and you can only transfer 1 time without sitting a year unless you have graduated.

@southern-psu-fan I'd hope the NCAA fine tunes the portal as it goes along. We shall see.

I think it was BS to not allow a transfer within the same conference, and glad they got rid of it. Kids shouldn't be locked out of attending any college they want because of some arbitrary rule that has no reason to exist. No kid is bringing any sort of "inside info" that would be meaningful.
That said, the things I would change as NCAA commissioner is this: I'd lobby Congress HARD to make NCAA sports classified amateur and then set common sense rules around it. What lead to this nonsense was the NBA locking out kids from high school, and idiotic NCAA rulings like the kids who drank from a water hose "violating" rules because it was provided by the University during an off time. Rulings like that from the NCAA is really the epitome of "play stupid games, win stupid prizes" The NCAA played their games and now they get NIL.
@roaminglion I would agree with you if it was about education but 98% of the time it’s only about football.

I dont care if it's about education or football, it's supposed to be amatuerism. That's the whole point, it's not pro.
I agree. If you are playing for 'free', play where you want if its available. On the other hand I can kinda see the restriction for in conference transfers when it defaults to schools competing with each other using NIL or some other money stream; that just gets messy.@roaminglion I would agree with you if it was about education but 98% of the time it’s only about football.
