Welcome back, transfer portal. That’s not what college football fans want to hear in the spring. The second portal window is only open for 10 days from April 16-25. The first portal window occurs right after the regular season and runs for almost three weeks.

Yes, teams are recruiting players from other rosters. Welcome to modern college sports.
