Arizona lost 65 players to the Transfer Portal in the last two years. With nine wins and three losses entering their bowl game, do not expect Arizona to lose as many players in the 2026 Transfer Portal cycle. The 2025 season should help Arizona have a more stable roster.
The 2026 Transfer Portal opens on January 2 and closes on January 16. That is when players must enter the transfer portal. Transfers can sign with their new programs after that date. The NCAA eliminated the spring transfer portal window.
Arizona head coach Brent Brennan believes one portal window helps roster clarity.
