LUNCH LINKS GETS EXTRA ELIGIBILITY

Hello and welcome to this week’s edition of Lunch Links. Today we have some good news, and we also have some really truly awful stuff.

Let’s start with the good:

The NCAA announced yesterday that schools can no longer dictate where transferring student-athletes can and cannot transfer to.

The Division I Council adopted a proposal this week that creates a new “notification-of-transfer” model. This new system allows a student to inform his or her current school of a desire to transfer, then requires that school to enter the student’s name into a national transfer database within two business days.
