2026-27 Men's Basketball Transfer Portal

It also has massive implications for further on. Tai bell in the 2028 class was held back and has an early birthday in November. So when he says his eligibility clock starts at 19, what does that mean in actuality?

cuz theoretically, in this 5 for 5 model, he’d only be allowed 4 seasons because the clock would start on his 19 birthday near the start of his senior year of HS.

But if a kid has a birthday in February and is held back, is he just not allowed to play when he turns 25 or is he in the same boat as Tai where he’d miss the whole fifth season pretty much?

With the way they are performing in the predraft events, and their high acclaim outta HS, I’d figure that none of our big 3 want to return to school tbh
 
Ngl this hits nicely for me tho my jit (cousin, i am not a father lmao) is class of 2030 & the reclassifying stuff is getting outta pocket
 
This still has massive ramifications depending on how it’s implemented. Like does miami need to find a new punter ASAP and are we even allowed to go find one after the Xavier Lucas rule?

The logical thing to do would be pass the rule this season, but it begins next season. That way seniors this year have no basis to sue and everybody has a year to prepare.
