Jai Lucas probably wouldn’t have left his job as an assistant coach at Duke right before the Final Four to become the Miami head coach if the transfer portal didn’t open until after the postseason. Lane Kiffin probably wouldn’t have bolted for rival LSU from a playoff-bound Ole Miss team if college football had different portal dates, as well. Football still has to solve its problem, but men’s basketball finally got it right. On Jan. 14, the NCAA announced that the men’s and women’s basketball portals won’t open until after the Final Four and it will last for 15 days. That deadline is for players who want to enter the portal. They will still have until the end of August before the semester starts to make a decision on their next destinations. This is massive news for the sport, and warmly welcomed in all quarters. “Finally a rule that makes sense,’’ Nebraska coach Fred Hoiberg said. Added Purdue coach Matt Painter, “This is what we tried to get from day one. When we argued (against) the 45-day window, they told us if we do not get on board then there could be no window at all.’’ Follow Fubo Sports: TWITTER: https://twitter.com/fuboSports INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/fubosports/ TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@fubosports?
