In order to be immediately eligible after a first time transfer, a student athlete must enter the portal within 60 days after the season ends. There will be some time allowed after a coaching change or if a scholarship is pulled as well.

False. Notification window of 60 days begins after Selection Sunday

Thanks for the correction. Reading comprehension would have served me well in this case.

So, roughly mid-May or slightly sooner to get immediate first time eligibility. Vast majority of transfers happen before that. Not really a big deal other than the extra time for coaching changes and pulled scholarships.

What people will say (you did not, but national writers will) is that there is a "60 day transfer window". There is not. There is a 60 day notification window.

Not really a big deal really. I think most transfers already enter the portal by mid-May. It simply helps avoid kids jumping ship at a bad time for the schools but still being immediately eligible

Exactly. It's a yawner. The national dopes haven't figured it out yet
