       I heard about the Buffalo offer from someone there, both kinda

       Somebody like BC's Matt Valecce (I don't know if he is
       eyeballing a transfer but he is completely buried on the depth
       chart - next year will be even more so, we've got BC kids

       BC, at seasons end, had seven QB's on the roster. Two were
       walk-ons, four were three-star or better recruits, and one was
       no stars but still a scholly player. Sam Johnson III, who coming
       out of HS held over 15 FBS offers including four from BIG TEN
       teams, is currently in the portal. He entered roughly 10 days
       ago. Two more 3-star QB's signed in the class of '21. One is a
       PWO, no idea why. The kid held an offer from Ohio State but
       walked to go to BC and guess since they'll have too many QB's on
       scholarship, told him he needs to wait for one. Wouldn't be
       surprised if another 1-2 QB's decide to transfer out in the
       coming months.
       [/quote]
       And  the incumbent starter (Jurkovich)  who came over from Notre
       Dame after playing in several games and then  losing a close
       competition to Ian Book, really lit it up for BC this year, is a
       favorite of the coach,  and looks to be a lock at starter [if he
       stays healthy and doesn't go pro] for the next three (!) years.
       And current #2 Grosel (who started for BC most of 2019) did not
       burn a year this year so he has two years left too.  Crazy
       logjam (I'm sure it is the case at all P5s - and doubtlessly
       worse with all kids retaining a Covid year - but when you look
       at a big school school the number of talented QBs riding the
       pines  it is stunning.). Agree BC will see an exit of at least
       one or two more QBs.
       (I apologize in advance for meandering to BC...but I do think it
       could be a QB source for us at some point as it has been for
       other positions in the recent past.)

       I very much agree. FCS teams should take full advantage of the
       retaining year of  eligibility players who end up getting pushed
       deer down the depth chart at FBS schools.

       I’m hearing that the NCAA has some interesting things that they
       plan on voting sometime soon and if they approve them it would
       effect how players transfer. Currently if a player is say on
       Alabama and wants to transfer to say Arkansas that player would
       have to sit out a year well if the changes go through players
       will no longer have to do that and could then play right away
       this could effect players going to the FCS when they can go
       directly to a FBS school without sitting out. The same would be
       true with FCS players like an SBU player going to JMU and not
       have to sit out a year. Also if a player goes to a lower
       division and decides to transfer to a higher division they would
       not have to wait a year to play.
       These are just a couple of things I got this from a few
       different Colleges and they believe that this and other things
       have a good chance of being passed

       It's in the works. Will having bigger consequences in football,
       but basketball has seen the most chatter on a one-time transfer
       exception for a person's collegiate career.

       FCS schools are going to get killed by losing good players to
       the FBS. The same thing with not getting FBS transfers. The only
       way out of this is to go to FBS. I don't see SBU doing this in
       our lifetime, but I do see a ton of FCS schools looking to make
       that jump.
       This is going to change the landscape of the FBS. The power 5
       will not be affected by this change at all. However, I can see
       the G5 turning into the G6,7,8 9. etc... No Athlete is going to
       want t play in the FCS anymore when they will eventually have an
       opportunity to play in the FBS, even if it only a G5 conference.
       Thoughts??????

       FCS players already get killed losing grad transfers to FBS, the
       introduction of this rule would demolish the FCS for two
       reasons. Players who have a great season could then enter the
       portal, gauge the interest from FBS teams if one they like
       bites, boom, gone. At the same time, FBS players would no longer
       drop to FCS in hopes of being able to play right away. Now some
       would still move down in hopes of having a bigger impact on a
       team, but the one-time transfer would be terrible for CFB fans.

       That is correct. Football minded FCS schools need to move up to
       the FBS at all cost if they want to attract good athletes going
       forward. But this could only happen if the G5 expands and more
       FBS conferences are made.
       If bottom-dweller FCS schools want to stay small and still have
       football as part of their athletics, that's fine. They should
       stay in the FCS. But if the better FCS schools want to improve
       and move up and compete, then there need to be more FBS
       conferences for them to move into. I feel like the Goal Post was
       just moved back another 20 yards for all FCS schools.

       One thing I can tell you is SBU spends a lot of money on
       recruiting and the reason they offer all these 3 Star players is
       to build a relationship with the kid so if in the event they
       decide to transfer they will remember how hard SBU came after
       him in the onset and reach out.
       Another thing there are really good HS Football Players that to
       get on the field faster go DII/DIII they can now do that and
       then reach out to an FCS Program and transfer up to them.
       One last thing I believe the yearly budget for FBS is $5M while
       FCS is $2M and that doesn’t include Coaches Salaries.

       When you say "Yearly budget for FBS" Like what. Money that
