Mario Cristobal on Miami staying together with 5% chance to make CFP<\/p>\n

After losing to SMU in November, Mario Cristobal explains how he kept the team together and focused on making the CFP.<\/p>\n

College football<\/a>‘s version of free agency has changed the sport, and there have been changes to the transfer portal itself this winter.<\/p>\n

The portal period now runs from Jan. 2-16, with an extra five-day window (Jan. 20-24) for teams playing in the national championship. The spring portal window in April is no longer<\/a> a part of the schedule, so January is the only open window for teams to add via the portal in 2026.<\/p>\n
