Agree 100%. Tough call, though. If you allow students to transfer if the coaches leave, that's hard on the jilted school. For example, should all the Cincy players be able to bolt Cincy for ND? 

I do think players should be able to transfer immediately if a school *fires* the coach they signed on to play for.

And that was literally 1 second from happening. That would have put Kelly and ND in very, very interesting situation. 

And boy, do I wish it had happened. (Ndamukong Suh for Heisman!!!)
