I agree that the portal time period needs to be reduced but I also think the continuous churn needs to reduced through the NIL contracts. Those contracts need to specify requirements to play in bowls and longevity periods for staying with a team in order to collect some large portion of the monies. They probably also need to introduce some significant financial penalties (or reductions to the roster limit) for schools which are found to have tampered with players.

Timing wise for football that would be great, but for actual school, not feasible unless schools pushed back their spring semester to start the 2nd or 3rd week of January.
Nebraska starts later but some schools start like the 6th or 7th.

Yeah isn't part of eligibility is the fact that the student needs to be enrolled at said school at the beginning of the semester 🙄

Most spring semesters start before this transfer portal window would end. How would that work to where players could enroll in classes?
I am not an expert on when spring semesters start, but surely most don’t start before the 12th, do they? My daughters went to Minnesota and never started up until the third week of January…

Even if most do start earlier than I realize, isn’t there a period of 2 weeks or so after the semester starts to get enrolled? After that time passes then no one can enroll? Or am I dreaming?

This is funny. As if players care when classes start. Take a couple of online classes that they can start whenever

I think many start after MLK day.

College football rules and regulations most helps cheaters because 99% of it is on the honor system. I wouldn't be surprised if a certain conference also started clamoring for more NIL regulation that everyone else will follow to give them back the advantage of paying players.
That's not wrong. The SEC had it made with a neutered NCAA scared to do anything about cheating. This mess that has been made now cannot help the SEC. Just look at Texas quickly passing up Alabama and its other new SEC rivals. Other schools could do the same thing.

this new rule change is just going to make more coaches cheat in the portal. If they only have ten days legally now for portal guys, this just makes them have to do it more illegally now do to lack of time. Until someone gets SMU type of slaps, then why not cheat? Cause of integrity? These a million dollar jobs at stake with no enforcement for doing wrong, give me a break
