I don't have a problem with the transfer rule as it is. You know going in what it is....it's not like you're getting surprised after your sophomore year when you decide it's not a good fit. Colleges aren't created to give kids a spot to play a sport...they're created for education. I do think that if you're a recruted/scholarship athlete and the coach that was the HC when you got there leaves or is fired, then you should have the opportunity to transfer with no sitting out. Other than that one thing, I think the rest of the rule(s) are good the way they are. It's bad enough that JUCO kids can show up at D1's after their sophomore year and possibly take a spot from a kid who has been there for 2 seasons....they don't need any more new guys coming around.
