I would add that if players are..

grandfathered in and it takes effect very soon as in this current portal landscape, this would very much change the market. These are big ifs and don’t know where this ultimately ends up as the NCAA has an extremely poor recent record in state, federal and the Supreme Courts. But essentially you will be adding an entire class of seniors into the portal immediately, thus suppressing value as there will be much more supply. A long way from seeing this but it would be an instant and dramatic change to the portal. And if it was decided to grandfather players in for the 5th year you would have to allow them to instantly become portal-eligible due to the change occurring after the portal entry deadline. It could be a fascinating disruption. Possibly beneficial for Virginia Tech and I wonder if we don’t see some programs start really slow playing some things as far as new signings while they try to get clarification. Timing of this is ridiculous but so on point for the NCAA. Who knows how, when and if this even transpires. ** Edited by Rev.Zeke Vodka at 4/23/2026, 4:54:32 PM
