Penn State University head coach James Franklin has said the NCAA needs to reform its transfer rules, saying the rules create an untenable situation where players have to decide to leave teams during the College Football Playoffs.

At a press conference ahead of Penn State’s matchup against no. 11 SMU Saturday, Franklin was asked about the transfer of backup quarterback Beau Pribula. Pribula announced his intention to transfer out on Sunday.
