Most of the Senate version that passed will have little impact on the Niners or the Big West.

But, there is one part of it that will have a big impact. It is going to limit transferring without sitting out a year to once in an athletes 5 year window. There will still be exceptions for programs shutting down or head coaches who leave but this should curtail the "transfer wild west" that we've seen in the last 2 to 3 years. You can see that players will be very careful about when and when not to transfer. Once a player transfers (assuming JC transfers don't count) to another NCAA school, they're kind of locked in. This should really help the mid and low major types stabilize rosters. I'm kind of surprised the P4 schools support this provision...
