The NCAA began allowing college athletes to transfer without having to red shirt, or “sit out” for a year without playing in October 2018. Since then, student athletes have taken full advantage of the transfer portal, and even sometimes transferring multiple times during their Division 1 college career. The new rule combined with allowing players to earn money in college, something called Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) has some who believe its a good thing and some who think college sports shouldn’t be professionalized. CNBC’s Sport and Media reporter, Alex Sherman breaks down the transfer portal’s impact on March Madness.
