The waivers are not related to entering the portal, I believe. They govern your eligibility after a transfer out of the portal. E.g., Arik Gilbert entered the portal in the winter window, we took him.; Now we need to find out if he can get a waiver to be eligible this fall or if the one year residence rule applies.I was going to reference him but wasn't sure if since it was that long ago things changed. General idea though is there's waivers for freaking everything anymore. NCAA basically opened the flood gates and they don't know how to stop the leak.
In order to transfer and be eligible at all, you have to conform to the portal mechanism, I believe.
