Is instant eligibility no longer an option? I thought it was almost a given now?
Key words "one time" and it's over after July 1st, 2021. I'm just saying this past year was an outlier for transfers and kids will think more carefully about transferring.
One time means one time in your collegiate career, not as in one time as a specialty for 2021…the deadline dates for future years are even discussed.Key words "one time" and it's over after July 1st, 2021.

The transfer rule will allow all college athletes, including football and men’s basketball players, to transfer one time and receive immediate eligibility. Currently, all but five sports operate under such a system. This would likely take effect immediately, sources said. “The genie’s been out of the bottle on this for a while now,” one said.
The Council also approved notification dates for those transferring. In normal years, there will be a May 1 notification date for fall/winter athletes to tell their school they are leaving and a July 1 deadline for spring athletes.
NCAA 1-time transfer rule clears final hurdleKey words "one time" and it's over after July 1st, 2021. I'm just saying this past year was an outlier for transfers and kids will think more carefully about transferring.
The NCAA Division I Board of Directors ratified a rule change Wednesday that will allow all athletes who have not yet transferred the ability to do so one time in a college career and be immediately eligible to play.
Now it will be available to all athletes who have not yet transferred, starting with the 2021-22 academic year.
Yeah, I’m not sure why people are reading so much into the July 1st, 2021 deadline. That is specifically for the upcoming academic year. As in, if you transfer now, you will have to sit out this year. But if you transfer after your season is over but before July 1st, 2022 you are instantly eligible for your next season.
It’s one free transfer for all students moving forward. Not just this year.
