<![CDATA[No waiver for you!]]>I guess the NCAA has too much on its plate to fight with coaches right now. Here’s the blah, blah, blah version of its Division I Council’s decision to table the proposal for a one-time transfer waiver until January of next year.

Here’s the tl;dr version.

One-time transfer waivers are dead until at least 2021-22 academic year, sources told @Stadium, as NCAA Division I Council approved a resolution to develop legislation regarding transfer eligibility for January 2021 that would not be effective until 2021-22 academic year

So, what does that mean, in practical terms? To start with, bad news for — you guessed it — the Portal Master™.

If this holds, no Lingard or Shorter for Florida this year. No Jordan Pouncey either (Mullen has said they filed a waiver for him). https://t.co/WImohZnSqY

Barring some last minute fancy lawyering, that gap’s gonna have to wait another year to close.

I assume that means Cade Mays will have to sit a year in Knoxville, too. Anything that weakens Florida and Tennessee is good news for Georgia.
