You’d have to be incredibly lame to announce you’re entering the portal right now when you could be playing in a playoff game with an injury and the portal doesn’t even open for a month

You'd have to be incredibly stupid not to. Its no secret to anyone on the team whose hitting the portal so might as well let the world know now and get a start on finding your future team.

But doesn’t the agent let the football world know without letting the actual world know?

What I mean is that it seems players could have their cake and eat it too.
Prepare to play in the CFP, while your agent starts putting out the news quietly.

I've become calloused to this stuff, and have come around the last few years that 99.99% of this is a business. If a player wants to transfer out, I'm fine with it.

But I need someone to explain to me how announcing tonight, for example, helps you?

I genuinely don't know, so I need someone to correct me.

All of these kids have agents. If you are planning to enter the portal, the entire world is "tampering", although that's not even a thing anymore. Your agent is reaching out to teams. What does doing this in the middle of a playoff run do for you?

The only thing I can think of, and I guess this is the obvious and beneficial answer, is it lets every single team know, in flashing lights, that you're available, rather than your agent having to reach out to schools you're interested in? Maybe helps you get a call from a school that otherwise wouldn't know you're going to enter because you didn't call them?
 
If the NCAA rules are going to allow guys to portal out prior to the final game (title game), then the NCAA needs to allow the incoming 2026 signees that have early enrolled be eligible to play for depth.

If that means changing the calendar of ESD to a week or two prior, so be it. Then allow kids to enroll on Dec. 15 and start Spring classes about 2-3 weeks later.

If creating a product that ppl wanna see is what the CFP wants, then these school presidents/ADs need to get together and fix this
