What's a 4-2-4 transfer?
It means he has four years to play four years of his sport.
That is an extremely unique scenario in the traditional sense. Even with the new transfer rules it still seems that it would be very rare. If Tate Martell is granted a waiver he too will have four years to play four years of football (redshirt year followed by a waiver of his transition ("sit out") year.
For reference, a person has five years to play four years of their sport starting from their first day of full time enrollment at any college or university.
