There’s been no hotter subject surrounding Notre Dame and the rest of the college football world over the past month than the transfer portal. And yes... I’m including the signing day early period, bowl season, and the college football playoff in that discussion — nothing has been hotter than the portal for a variety of reasons.
One of those reasons is because of the timing of the portal itself. It’s a mad dash for players and coaching staffs to get as much done as possible to ensure the best roster possible by the start of the winter semester.
