Message: [QUOTE="Hoo's That, post: 3295479, member: 3609"] You're showing recency bias. This rule came about a long, long time ago, well before African American players were even in most lineups, let alone dominate them. Way, way, way Back in the Day, there were itinerant players that would change schools almost yearly and the "sit out" rule was designed to curb that practice. I'm ambivalent about the change. If they want to change the rule, that's fine. I have no problem with conferences keeping the sit-out rule for intra-conference transfers of non-graduates. I also think that more players will leave the blue bloods than will go into them. There are a lot of players that think they're hot stuff, ride the bench at a blue blood, and come to realize that if they took that offer from a non-blue blood, they'd be a starter. [/QUOTE]
