SEC Coaches Decry Rampant Tampering in College Football But Offer Few Solutions

  • South Carolina's football team had four key contributors enter the transfer portal after finishing an 8-4 season.
  • Coaches complain about tampering but punishments have not been enforced by the NCAA.
  • Tampering is difficult to prove and coaches are cautious about turning in their colleagues and potentially damaging a player's eligibility.
  • Coaches have to re-recruit their rosters year-to-year and fend off other programs trying to poach star players through third-party avenues.
  • The SEC has a 45-day window that opens after the regular season ends and a 15-day window that starts in mid-April for football transfers.
