agency, according to the lawyer in charge of two cases that could become a
game-changer in college athletics, one that would enable players to transfer
without having to sit a year.Free transferring is more appropriate, said Steve
Berman, the managing partner at Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro and lead attorney of
a case involving a pair of ex-college football players against the NCAA.Whatever
the terminology you wish to utilize, it would create a significant impact
throughout the world of college athletics.If kids are allowed to transfer
without sitting out, college basketball will never be the same, Arizona coach
Sean Miller said Whatever the number is of kids transferring this year, 700 or
so, I think you can double that.One of Bermans clients, former Northern Illinois
punter Peter Deppe, visited Iowa during the fall semester of 2015 and was told
by the staff he could have a scholarship only if he was eligible to play at the
start of the 2016 campaign. However, the Hawkeyes werent willing to wait a year
for him to transfer and become eligible, so Deppe wasnt able to make the move.
Deppe ultimately decided to give up football and is currently enrolled at
Kettering University, majoring in engineering.I just hope my case can make a
change for other student-athletes wanting to transfer, Deppe told ESPN.
Unfortunately, the NCAA makes the process a nightmare and confusing.While the
overwhelming belief of the college basketball coaching fraternity is that
players being able to transfer without having to sit a year is imminent, NCAA
chief legal officer Donald Remy told ESPN he isnt ready to go that far.I am
confident we will be victorious in these cases, Remy told ESPN. If they win, we
wouldnt be able to have the rule anymore.Berman told ESPN that the NCAA moved to
dismiss the case, but he is optimistic it will move forward in federal court in
Indianapolis. He is just as confident they will ultimately come out with a
favorable ruling.Im surprised more people havent woken up and realized the
impact and the implications this case could have, Berman added.Many college
basketball coaches are well-aware and arent thrilled with the prospect of what
they deem as looming free agency.College basketball will turn into the wild,
wild West, one head coach told ESPN.The transfer rate has increased over the
past decade -- from 250 or so back in the 2008 to approximately 700 the past
couple of years. Part of the up-tick is due to the graduate transfer rule. A
record 125 Division 1 players took advantage this year. Another aspect is
societal, where players are changing high schools more frequently and also
summer league programs instead of fighting through adversity.Many coaches
contacted by ESPN fear that last years number could rise to well over 1,000 if
kids dont have to sit a year and youll see coaches literally recruiting kids who
arent getting minutes in the handshake line following games.Itll be no-holds
barred, another high-major head coach told ESPN. The tampering will be out of
control.Two of the most powerful coaches in the game agree on what the next step
should be in changing the transfer rules, and its not complete freedom for
players.The thing that should happen is if a coach leaves, a kid should be
allowed to transfer and play right away, Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski told ESPN.
Thats what the coach can do. Before taking the leap that you may want to take,
Id look at that.It isnt good for the kids to be able to move without penalty,
Kentucky coach John Calipari added. If a coach leaves, they should all be able
to leave and play right away. What are you going to do if a kid chooses to leave
in December and join another program?Berman said the intent of the lawsuit is
not to be able to change schools during the academic year and be able to play
immediately. The intent is to avoid sitting a full academic year before being
eligible.National Association of Basketball Coaches president Jeff Jones, also
the head coach at Old Dominion, said there has been plenty of discussion
recently about whether the one-year transfer residency will be a thing of the
past.As some have said, and Id agree, if it gets to free agency, that would be a
scary thing for college athletics, Jones said. Hopefully there can be a solution
that is not restrictive to student-athletes.In the meantime, we wait and see
whether a former punter from Northern Illinois can change the landscape of
college sports.

Warriors secured a bonus-point 46-10 win over Scarlets. Fly-half Russell and
wing Lee Jones crossed twice each as Glasgow extended their winning run to eight
Guinness Pro12 games with a seven-try hammering of Scarlets at Parc y

comprehensive win while Scarlets, who had to deal with 20 players being struck
down with a stomach bug in midweek, slipped out of the play-off places with
Ulster winning at Zebre. Russell provided a personal tally of 21 points with two
tries, a penalty and and four conversions while Jones (two), scrum-half Henry

Parkes Defending champions Glasgow were able to name an all international squad
of 23 and they deserved their 20-10 interval lead having been on the front foot
for most of the half, scoring three tries to Scarlets one.Scarlets opened the
scoring with a third-minute Shingler penalty but after that it was the Russell
show. His first try came when he chipped over the Scarlets defence in the 22,
caught it and scored. His conversion gave the visitors a 7-3 lead on seven
minutes. DTH van der Meerwes injury added to Scarlets woes If Scarlets had not
had enough problems with the stomach bug, which had caused the region to cancel
Thursdays training session, they then lost influential Canada wing DTH van der

turned down two shots at goal and it paid off with Williams dancing over from 10
metres under the posts. Shingler converted to cut the deficit to five points.
Glasgow Warriors Lee Jones scores his sides third Scarlets worked hard to launch
another attack but when they turned over the ball Pyrgos conceived a counter
attack and sent wing Jones in at the left corner for the third score.Glasgow
carried on after the break where they had left off with Pygros over the line in
the 41st minute for the bonus-point try after a fine break from Seymour. Russell
added the extras.On 59 minutes Scarlets conceded a soft fifth try with Bennett
picking up a loose ball and running on unopposed from 30 metres out with Russell
converting again.It was not a great afternoon for the Scarlets, who had lost
their previous home game to Cardiff Blues, and it only got worse when Seymour
went over for the sixth try on 65 minutes after good work by Russell, who
converted, and replacement Leone Nakarawa.Six minutes from time Russell went
close to scoring a hat-trick before Jones was on hand to score his second to
compound Scarlets misery. ' ' '
