  Leaving aside whatever reasons she may have had for wishing to transfer
to Minnesota, and whatever hard feelings may still be festering in Durham,
how is that she's eligible to play straightaway without having to sit out a
year as is required for male athletic transfers within the same division ??
Are the rules for such lateral transfers in women's sports less strict than
for men ??
