The differnece is that some 'groups' of players are wanting to go to the same school. It's not that NCAA is not letting them leave without penalty just cause they want to leave. They are trying to curb the basically free recruiting that Texas is getting by having a natural disaster in it's bordering state.
It's also vastly different than the Baylor deal cause you are just talking about 10-12 guys that are going to leave cause they didn't know if the NCAA was even going to allow Baylor to play the next year.
Here you have whole athletic programs that don't necessarily need replacing, but if you are a student athlete you want to play... not sit around, wait and wonder when your school is even going to open up again
