Lane Kiffin slams SEC for proposed rule change targeting transfers

Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin has publicly criticized the Southeastern Conference for considering a return to a policy that would force athletes transferring between league schools to sit out for one year. Kiffin argued that such a move would be counterproductive, potentially driving players to join programs in other conferences instead of remaining within the SEC.

The conference is currently evaluating its transfer regulations as the January 4 opening of the FBS transfer portal approaches. This discussion follows previous NCAA adjustments that had allowed for immediate eligibility for intraconference transfers starting in 2021.
