Starting today, a student-athlete only needs to provide their university and coach their written “intent” to transfer. After this occurs, the university must enter the student-athlete’s name into a national transfer database within two business days. At this point, the student-athlete may contact and be contacted by whomever.
However, inter-conference transferring rules do still apply. So things like sitting out a season of play when transferring within the same conference are still in effect.
