Something that should never have existed—and that college coaches have been strongly pushing to remove—has finally been struck down by the Division I Administrative Committee.
Quick refresher on the old rules: The “main” transfer window from last year opened in the fall (December 9–28) while the spring window ran from April 16–25.
There’s still some uncertainty ahead, as the FBS and FCS oversight committees are set to meet in October to discuss moving the fall window from December to January—a change that feels like another obvious, common-sense fix.
