This is only going to increase the frequency and depth of tampering taking place. Do not like this to be frank.

My thoughts exactly. Less "official" transfer time means a lot more activity will happen when it's not supposed to happen.

Why don't those chucklefucks put a moratorium on adopting new rules and proposals and instead start with enforcing the rules they currently have in place

This was exactly my thought.

Clearly when an organization has lost any semblance of control over their current regulations - the only logical answer is to regulate more.

It doesn't really reduce the time to court transfers or sign them - it just shortens the window for entering the portal. It probably won't affect the number of guys entering the portal - it will just make that activity faster. I think moist people enter early now anyway.

I think it's better for everyone, frankly, as long as they set the spring date late enough so that kids know where they stand after spring practice.

Agreed. I don't think this changes much at all. Honestly they could drop it down to a couple of days. I can see a larger window after the season as teams finish the season at different times. Maybe change it to where a player has a two week window after the team's last game, instead of a uniform window for all, since there is more than a month difference when teams end the season.

Also agree with the Spring window. I don't understand why they moved the dates earlier for football this year, many teams weren't done with Spring practice yet.

Like Gov't.

This is a great idea frankly, and one that protects programs. With less time to enter staffs will have a pretty good idea of who is going to enter before they’re able to.

Scott Drew from Baylor has been a big proponent of this idea from a CBB standpoint

I work in college athletics (not football) and the portal is an unregulated mess. The longer the portal is open, more tampering can happen. I think you’ll see the portal times move and open once a sports national championship has been played.

As someone who works in college athletics, do you think tampering really has anything to do with the portal? That is, teams know when the portal opens and they know when they need to start working in the shadows to get kids into it regardless of how long it's actually open for

It will be interesting to see how the window at the end of the college football season works. Some teams are done in November some in January. With many semesters starting in January. There isn't really a time slot that works for all.

I know it has ALOT to do with the portal. The other part of the portal is it gives kids an out who aren’t happy with playing time, NIL, etc. I think tampering happens moreso in basketball (my sport) compared to football. The only rule in place is that you can’t tamper with the athlete themselves. There are so many ways to get messages to kids through high school coaches, AAU, family members etc.
