KANSAS CITY, Mo. – NABC Executive Director Craig Robinson has issued a statement following the release of NCAA data on transfer activity and graduation rates.
“The NABC has consistently advocated for a balanced one-time transfer policy that prioritizes flexibility for athletes while maintaining structures that support academic success. Today’s NCAA data release validates coaches’ core concern that escalating transfer activity has indeed driven down graduation rates. This trend is particularly alarming in men’s basketball, given the decades of progress toward improving graduation outcomes that preceded the recent deregulation of the transfer environment. The NABC remains committed to championing solutions – through NCAA legislation, Congressional engagement, or both – that safeguard athlete rights without sacrificing degree completion.”
