The 2021 college football season will go down in history as the Year of the Transfer.
Because the 2020-21 academic year did not count against anyone s eligibility clock and because the NCAA finally approved the one-time free transfer proposal (undergraduates aren t required to sit out for a year if it s their first time transferring), transfers are taking place en masse.
The vast majority of those transfers will be either inconsequential or only mildly consequential, but a handful could make a College Football Playoff-altering impact in their new homes.
A player leaving one team to lead another to championship heights is not a new phenomenon. A former transfer won the Heisman Trophy in 2017, 2018 and 2019, after all. But it feels like there have already been at least five times as many Oh, wow, that s a huge pickup for an already solid team reactions to transfers as usual.
