Does that mean only portal declarations are closed?
Can an already declared portal player commit during this period?
Inquiring minds want to know.
That is my understanding, but I could be wrong. As mentioned above, I think that only graduate students can still enter the portal, but those who are already in the portal can still be signed. A few teams still have some openings, and will still be signing a player or two, but I would think activity will slow down considerably, and most players who are still in the portal will be out of football next season.
