Everyone should prepare themselves for a slew of WSO decommitments and cuts as soon as the portal opens in November. I haven’t seen many, if any, teams below the mandated 28 roster spots which means teams picking up transfers will result in players being dropped—both rostered

The 30-day transfer portal window will open for Virginia Tech and UCLA tomorrow. Neither played 4 games, meaning players are still eligible to redshirt. on3.com/transfer-porta…

U.S. District Judge Claudia Wilken has ordered that a hearing be held Nov. 6 on "on objections to the continuation of the" going-forward, injunctive aspects of the NCAA-House settlement, which also is on appeal to the 9th U.S. Circuit of Appeals.
