One that really stands out is that Bru McCoy. He's a 5* at USC that is an early enrollee this semester.

If he signed a NLI, then he may pay a steep price:

The NLI basic penalty is that you lose one year of competition in all sports and must serve one year in residence at your next NLI institution.

Asking for an NLI ReleaseI

And this is a fuller explanation of the situation if he signed a NLI:

Getting an NLI Release

If you are transferring after finishing an academic year at a school, the National Letter of Intent you may have signed with the school does not impact the transfer, since the NLI will be fulfilled. If you signed an NLI and want to transfer before finishing your freshman year, then you will need a release from the NLI in addition to permission to contact other schools and/or permission to use the one-time transfer exception.

While the NLI is in effect, it can impact a transfer in two ways. First, the NLI includes a recruiting ban, so other schools may not recruit you until you are released from that ban. Second, the NLI includes a penalty if you do not attend the school you signed with for one academic year. If you do not fulfill the NLI and enroll in another NLI school, you may not compete for one year and you lose one season of eligibility in all sports.

To get a release from the National Letter of Intent, you must use the release form on the NLI website. After you fill out your section of the form, you send a copy of the form to two places: your school’s athletic department offices and to the NLI offices at the NCAA Eligibility Center. Once you send the form, the athletic department must respond within 30 days. There are three options for them to respond:

  1. No release – This means you are not released from the NLI and all of its provisions are still in effect.
  2. Complete release – This means you are released from all of the NLI’s provisions.
  3. Removal of the recruiting ban – This means the recruiting ban is lifted, but the NLI penalty is still in effect if you do not fulfill the NLI.
NLI releases cannot be school-specific, like permission to contact. So you cannot be released to one school but not another. Because of this, many schools will first remove the recruiting ban, but may not grant a complete release until the school knows where an athlete plans to transfer.

If a release is not granted, a student-athlete has 30 days to appeal to the NLI Policy and Review Committee (rather than to a group at the school). If the student-athlete losses that appeal, there is a second appeal to the NLI Appeals Committee. Each appeal takes approximately six to eight weeks to get a decision.

NCAA Transfer Rules. 4-4 Transfer. Permission to Contact.

Looks like UCF already taking 3-4 transfers. Lot of guys wanting to jump on that bandwagon and play against easier competition.
