Report: NCAA's One-Time Transfer Waiver Tabled Until At Least 2021-22

A proposed one-time transfer waiver that would allow college athletes to transfer and be immediately eligible at their new school has been turned down until at least the 2021-22 academic year, according to Brett McMurphy of Stadium.

In February, the NCAA announced its Transfer Waiver Support Group was considering the idea, and was seeking feedback from its Division I members.

"The current system is unsustainable. Working group members believe it's time to bring our transfer rules more in line with today's college landscape," said working group chair Jon Steinbrecher, commissioner of the Mid-American Conference.
