I thought that a player could only take advantage of the graduate transfer rule if the player wanted to pursue a graduate program of study that was not offered at their current school?
And I did not realize that the graduate transfer rule has only been around for about 5 years. I thought it was a longer period of time.
Here is a short article with comments from d1 coaches that covers both sides of this issue.
