To encourage each student athlete to remain at one institution throughout his or her four years of eligibility, the intercollegiate rules committee drafted a new rule mandating that students who transfer to a different college wait a year before representing that new college in athletics. The mother of one such athlete thought the rule was unfair because the time off would cause her son’s skills to atrophy and thus damage his chance to pursue a professional career.
The mother assumes that
A. she would have advised her son not to transfer if she had known about the rule
B. all professional athletes owe their success to the playing experience they received in college
C. the rules committee is made up of former college athletes who understand how difficult it is to balance scholarship with athletics
D. it is uncommon for someone with no collegiate experience to thrive at the professional level
E. her son has no place else to play during his one-year suspension
