CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- In a unanimous show of support,
Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) coaches voted Tuesday
in favor of a proposal that would reduce college football's
transfer windows down to a single 10-day period in January
in an effort to preserve the integrity of bowl season and put
guardrails on a system many coaches lament as entirely broken.
During their meeting at the 2025 American Football Coaches Association convention, coaches supported the move to a single portal window from Jan. 2 through Jan. 12, starting for the 2025-26 academic year. Such a move would eliminate the current portal windows in both December and April with the single, shorter window.
The concerns surrounding the existing portal windows are driven largely by the timeline crunch of early December -- when postseason, high school recruiting and the portal all overlap -- and the impact on bowl season.
This year alone, Penn State played two playoff games without its backup QB, Beau Pribula, after he entered the portal in December....while Marshall was forced to opt out of its bowl bid due to significant personnel attrition after the conclusion of the regular season.
How effective the proposal would be in curbing December opt-outs and what the lack of a spring transfer window would mean for players remains up for debate, and will likely be a significant sticking point as the proposal moves its way through the NCAA approval process.
Another can of worms?
Dept. of Education says Title IX applies to payments to athletes
Paula Lavigne, Dan Murphy -
The plans that many major college athletic departments are making for how they will distribute new direct payments to their athletes would violate Title IX law, according to a memo published by the U.S. Department of Education on Thursday.
@Zeus4par
AGREED! They should give the athletes 10 days at the end of January, and that's the end of it.
That damn portal is ruining the Bowl/playoff system.

Hi! 
Still debating what I'm going to do. IMO, the spread is a coin-flipper...
But I suppose I will 
LEAN IRISH on the spread IF AND ONLY IF it looks promising during LIVE play....but I gotta get a feel for how each team is playing first...
How about you?
ATLANTA -- No major decisions were made regarding the future format of the 12-team College Football Playoff on Sunday, but "tweaks" to the 2025 season haven't been ruled out, CFP executive director Rich Clark said.
A source with knowledge of the conversations said nobody at this time was pushing hard for a 14-team bracket, and there wasn't an in-depth discussion of the seeding process,
but talks were held about the value of having the four highest-ranked conference champions earn first-round byes.
