                        NCAA officially adopts new transfer portal rules, including major adjustment for players after coaching change

The NCAA has officially adopted new transfer portal rules that will significantly impact college football players. The key changes include: 1. Players who transfer after a coaching change at their school will be immediately eligible to play, rather than having to sit out a year. 2. There will be a specific transfer window period during which players can enter the portal and be immediately eligible the following season. 3. Players will be limited to one transfer with immediate eligibility during their college career. 4. Transfers who do not meet academic progress requirements will not be eligible immediately. These new rules aim to provide more flexibility and clarity for student-athletes navigating the transfer process, especially in the event of a coaching change. The NCAA hopes these changes will benefit both players and programs while maintaining academic standards.
