This is a big deal here! Still only one per school though.

Official visits

The council adopted new recruiting rules for official and unofficial visits. Moving forward, prospects will no longer have a limit to the number of official visits they can make to NCAA member schools. Prospects will be limited to one official visit per school, unless there is a head coaching change after an official visit, in which case prospects would be able to complete a second official visit to the same school. In men's basketball, prospects still will be able to complete a second official visit to the same school provided the visits do not occur in the same academic year.
"For young people considering where to go to college, visits to campus — both official and unofficial — are an integral part of the decision-making process," Tealer said. "This was an opportunity to modernize NCAA rules in a way that provides greater and more meaningful opportunities for prospects going through the recruitment process."

Official visits may last no longer than a two-night stay, during which schools will be permitted to cover travel costs, transportation, meals and reasonable entertainment for up to two family members accompanying a prospect on that visit. 

The rules will take effect July 1.

Same limit on the number of OVs each school can dole out each year?

@phillyeagle Not sure. Schools can have 56 to 60+ per year already.

The coaches don't seem to like this idea.

I like it. It will help the tweeners most. The big schools will have the tweeners for visits and then offer a walk on position. If you were that type of player and used up your visits to schools that really weren’t that interested, you had no room to visit smaller schools, where you most likely belonged anyway. 
Sure the big guys will get theirs, but that was true anyway. 
Overall, I like it.
