NCAA planning strong penalties for transfer portal transgressions
INDIANAPOLIS â College football is working to clean itself up this offseason, with the NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) Oversight Committee recommending the Division I Cabinet adopt emergency legislation related to tampering.

Transfer portal has been in effect for how many years, but the NCAA is finally going to put some parameters around it. Wow, they are quick on the draw. Why do we have them again? What do they really do?
Do you remember in school, when you were assigned group projects, and everyone sat around divvying up the work? At the end, little dumb Johnny sat there (with nothing to do because you didn't want him to mess anything up) but to sound helpful he said, " Well, I'll make sure we have coffee!" Little johnny reminds me of the NCAA.
These idiots were absolutely clowned by that little Mississippi judge, who in many folk's opinion did not have the power or right to give a college football player a second redshirt year after the player has already used his redshirt year. The NCAA is history from here on out. It has been said recently that Trump was going to get involved in all of this chaos known as current day college football to try and straighten some of this foolishness out. I am not so sure that the NCAA will be the governing body going forward. I know that most of these atheletic directors and coaches hate to hear that because it will mean the end of cheating for many of them. I am actually glad to have another shot at him because I am pretty confident that the look on his face at the end of the regular season game in 2025 will be the one we all see in 2026!
NCAA planning strong penalties…oh wait, doesn't that require a position of strength? NCAA can poster all it wants but with no spine, they are simply a powerless jellyfish…
No penalties or sanctions for the players or their representatives? Should be some penalties not reporting illegal contact to the athletic department.
👏🏻
First: With in-state courts overruling any NCAA decision that hurts the local team (Trinidad getting a 6th or 7th year of eligibility, for example): the NCAA is powerless to punish any coach or school.
Second: Coaches without an ounce of integrity (Pete Golding comes to mind but he’s not the only one in that boat) should be banned for at least a full season. Of course, the in-state court will simply say the ban is illegal and unenforceable.
Third: A player who did what Ferrell did, should be banned for life. Again, the corrupt in-state court will also overrule that as well.
Bottom line: College football is a bigger mess than the NFL could ever be. At least NFL players are subject to contract law. Once it was decided college players could be paid as much, or more, than NFL players, the college game was broken. Until some court rules the contracts these kids are signing are actually enforceable there is no viable solution imo.
Would have been nice to see Harbaugh, who basically stole a national championship with meaningful cheating via Connor Stalions, to have gotten this kind of penalty and Michigan, too. But he'd just evade by going pro... which leads us to the conclusion that: you can cheat if you're pro caliber 🤪
If they couldn't enforce the Chambliss decision or meaningful punishment on a national championship level infraction, do I believe they'll enforce this aggressive (and appropriate, IMHO) regulation? I remain skeptical.
I'd love to see this work as the first step toward reeling CFB back into something with explicit, enforceable rules, but I think we're going to be disappointed yet again...
Harbaugh did the same thing Pete Carroll did at USC..he cheated, lied, and took advantage of the system. But, when it came time to pay the Piper..BOTH high tailed it to the NFL to avoid any penalties from the ncaa. Evidently, the ncaa didn't learn a lesson from the Carroll fiasco. Actually not suprising, considering the organization that supposedly oversees all college athletics is corrupt itself.
The courts are ruling in favor of the athletes, not the colleges or coaches.
Politicians & agents have killed The NCAA & college football. It's all about $$ now. Sad
