Agreed. This could really actually benefit Ivies. So instead of those Princeton basketball players sitting out then going somewhere else, they could play 4 full years and still have another year to play elsewhere.

Excellent point, Ivy Ivy.

Right now, the outbound transfer portal acts as a sort of restrictor plate on the most aggressive recruiters in the Ivy League, most specifically Tommy Amaker. He recruits better players than the other Ivies, then loses them when they turn out to be just as good as advertised.

This will help Amaker somewhat, as he can now pitch the "Harvard for four, Big Ten or ACC for one" plan.

The real benefit will be for James Jones and Mitch Henderson, maybe Brett McConnell if he was the assistant who reeled in Tosan, Lee and Pierce. Yale and Princeton have had the problem where guys come in, develop and then become much BETTER than advertised. They leave for Michigan and Florida.
