Due to the controversy surrounding Sam Ukwuachu's transfer to Baylor, the Big 12 Conference is considering a rule change to toughen restrictions for such student-athletes.

Before that, the SEC adopted a rule change to its transfer rules in the wake of Jonathan Taylor's transfer from Georgia to Alabama. Proposed and adopted earlier this year, the rule change was believed to be a precedent of sorts for the rest of college athletics.

However, the other three Power Five Conferences - the ACC, Big Ten, and Pac-12 - are not discussing such rule changes, ESPN reported.

Baylor admitted Ukwuachu in May 2013 after he was dismissed from Boise State's football team after his freshman season. A few months later, he was accused of raping a female student before being incident on two related charges, and ultimately found guilty last week.

Many claim Baylor should have known about allegations of domestic violence against Ukwuachu at Boise State, but the school claims the incident was never reported. Unlike that case, Taylor was arrested on charges of domestic abuse and Alabama accepted his transfer anyway, where he was arrested on similar charges.

"I'm sure it [SEC rule] will be a topic of discussion," Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby told CBS Sports of a similar proposal potentially being voted on in his own conference. "It may be a little too raw right now to do anything much with it. I think there may be an ongoing conversation."

According to ESPN, the SEC's newly adopted transfer restrictions do not allow schools to accept student-athletes with "serious misconduct" charges on their record. Chiefly among such charges are sexual assault and domestic abuse.

ESPN learned the ACC seems content to keep its transfer rules the way they are, while the Big Ten and Pac-12 may eventually discuss such changes.
