Official positions and announcements from the College Football Governance Council.
The College Football Governance Council (CFGC) supports a single, enforceable standard for Football Bowl Subdivision college football. Eligibility, the transfer portal, name, image, and likeness, recruitment, and coaching transitions cannot mean one thing in one conference and another thing the next Saturday. That is the object of the bipartisan Protect College Sports Act now before Congress. The Council does not endorse the bill section by section. It does hold that a national rule without a place to apply it leaves the sport where it is.
The College Football Governance Council holds that an individual who has signed a professional football contract, been listed on a professional roster, or entered a professional draft without properly withdrawing should not be eligible to return to competition in college football.
