The NFL Combine isn't the only thing happening in Indianapolis this week. Ross Dellenger has been there for the NCAA meetings that have also been going on and he reports some notable changes coming out of Indy. Ross shares the latest rule changes in college football. The first change is in regard to targeting. The NCAA is eliminating a targeting ejection being carried over into the player's next game. The second rule change concerns the transfer portal. The plan is to impose heavy penalties on any school that signs an athlete outside of the transfer portal window. Ross and Andy Staples discuss these rule changes and their potential effect. They also discuss Cincinnati suing former quarterback Brendan Sorsby for his $1 million buyout that he has not yet paid. Then, Ross gets into some more news from the NCAA meetings. This news is regarding potential schedule changes to the college football calendar. Ross and Andy discuss the transfer portal window, a potential change to spring ball practices and teams being able to move their first game up to Week 0 in 2027. They also chat about what other changes could happen in the near future. Later, Steven Godfrey joins the show. In a recent episode, Godfrey was tasked with making a minor league type model for college football. Godfrey ended up taking a page out of the European soccer book as he discusses the methods of sending players to various teams. He and Andy discuss this model and how, or if, it could work in college football.
