NCAA tweaks transfer guidelines





INDIANAPOLIS -- The NCAA is putting a restriction on athletes who want to play immediately after changing schools to be closer to an ailing or injured family member.

The NCAA said Friday the athlete must choose a new school within 100 miles of the family member if it wants to play right away. Otherwise, the athlete will need to sit out a year as usual.

The NCAA said it was making the changes amid concerns that waiver decisions were not consistent from case to case.

seen this coming.

This sounds fair. I always expect the NCAA to do the wrong thing.

Fair decision. Why would someone leave school to be near family and then not be near family?
