Similar to a new job that requires payback of training/certification expenses if you leave before a certain date, could the NCAA simply make that part of your letter of intent?

Why not. Then they would know up front. How much that would help id debatable as when you arrive on campus you get the talk about all the do and donts and some still do.

Essentially the feds told the NCAA that athletes are employees and that ties their hands on so many options but imo if they are like employees you should be able to have them sign a contract that states if they transfer to another university before graduation to play the same sport they are responsible for repayment of the investment into them as an employee. I know there is way more nuance to it but if the NCAA and the conferences want to curb transferring there are ways.

The universities aren’t paying NIL. When an athlete decides to transfer, their scholarship ends when they leave school or end of semester. NIL payback has nothing to do with a universities and conferences but are up to private businesses.

Scholarships aren’t guaranteed so not sure why an athlete would have to pay them back. The contract for this would have to go both ways and I’m not sure that is in the best interest of a school.

Being guaranteed makes no difference. Its still a cost. A school has a ton of money tied up in the development of an athlete. If he is poached there should be compensation. They are dong that with coaches. If they did this schools would be much more careful in who they would want to acquire.

Coaches sign contracts…..yes they can be broken but they are guaranteed. You want to sign a 5 year scholarship guarantee with a 18 year old. They dont perform, you can’t get out of it. Small schools couldnt afford that.

This is exactly what needs to happen. Each player that is offered should have to sign a contract with various forms of stipulations, depending upon how the coaching staff feels about the player. Of course, the player would also want a contract that would be advantageous to his position, which is where the negotiations would have to take place.
