‘Makes a lot of sense’: NCAA committee approving single transfer portal window for FBS football

After the NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision Oversight Committee first proposed it in early September, a single transfer portal window for FBS football is being approved.

The period of transference slated for Jan. 2-16 is only pending the end of the NCAA DI Administrative Committee’s meeting on Wednesday.

    Arizona State athletic director Graham Rossini reacted to the initial proposal on Arizona Sports’ Burns & Gambo, saying the one-time opening “makes a lot of sense” for players, coaches and schools alike.

    “Let football teams build their roster, let these kids come in and really embrace the opportunity at their school, but at the same time, make it a more manageable lifestyle for our coaches,” Rossini said of Sept. 4.

    “What we’re asking college coaches to do today is not sustainable. It’s not fair. We’re asking them to coach and lead every single day 100-plus people and staff. … We’ve got to ask them to be mindful of retaining the roster, building in the portal. So, I think a shorter, single portal window makes a lot of sense.”

    Following the 2024 FBS regular season, the first portal was open in the winter from Dec. 9-28 and spring was from April 16-25. The spring window had already been voted out of existence on Sept. 17, as programs such as Tennessee struggled to recoup after notable players left for other opportunities.

    Under the new single portal rules, players will have to notify involved parties of their decision to enter the portal during a 20-day period in December.

    An exception lies in the case of players on teams in postseason play on or after Jan. 12, where they would have five days after their respective team’s final game to make a declaration for the portal.

    Rossini added he spoke with Mississippi State AD Zac Selmon before the two schools matched up in Week 2 and said the SEC shared the “same mindset with the Big 12” on the new, improved portal.

    “It allows you to get your roster set in January, go through spring football and have that effective time together and then go into the summer focused on the team in the fall,” Rossini said. “I’m glad the oversight committee voted on that today. I think it’s a responsible move and we’re supportive of it.”
