The college football spring transfer portal window is officially open. On Wednesday, the second portal window opened following spring practices, and it has already been an active one for the Tar Heels and the sport of college football.
It's a new era of the game, so it really shouldn't be shocking that it's been active already. But this is now another opportunity for teams to set their roster and prepare for the upcoming season. This window will run for 10 days and close for good on April 25th.
