This title is super confusing. For those only reading the title of the article, they are actually making it even more difficult to become immediately eligible. Athletes have to provide physical documentation of the "extenuating" and "extraordinary" circumstances that are causing them to transfer.
In cases where an athlete was run off by a coach or essentially had their scholarship pulled for non-disciplinary reasons, the NCAA will require a written statement from the athletics director at the previous school stating whether the athlete would not have had an opportunity to return to the team. The committee is being instructed to deny cases where the athlete can't document that they've been run off.
