Still dumb that it's during the NCAA Tournament. Wait until after the championship game.

Seems like it would just penalize quality teams still participating.

Less than it does currently though, it previously opened when there were 68 teams in the NCAA Tournament, plus all the NIT and CBI and whatever other postseason tournaments.

End of the season is nice in theory, but it's just not realistic to expect 300+ teams to sit on their hands and wait for the last few teams to finish playing. They'll just end up talking behind the scenes anyway

End of the season seems to work fine for the NFL, NBA, MLB, and NHL, and… every other league in the world.

Conversely, kids who enter the portal and sign with lower performing teams indicate they are in it more for the money than for the winning. Sure, there are always top level program who have a down year or get upset and are done after the first weekend, but for the most part, kids in the portal who want to play for the best programs and coaches, will wait until all the top teams are available to talk to about transferring.

And all that is for naught if a coach takes an NBA job midway through the summer.

This comparison is so dumb that it's not even worth explaining the difference. Not to mention every single one of those leagues has an in season period where players move teams while games are happening

Didn't realize people transferred in those leagues, learn something new every day.
