Transfer portal brings changes to football roster

In an offseason with plenty of transactions going through the transfer portal for the Bowling Green football program, the Falcons have had to do a lot of shifting around on their roster. Now, less than a week away from their first game against Morgan State, the Falcons hope to have details in order.

The transfer portal has been around for a long time, but it has gone through some recent changes. In October of 2018, according to al.com, the NCAA ruled players do not have to gain permission from their head coach to transfer, replacing the previous rule where coaches could block players from transferring.
