The NCAA basketball oversight committees proposed adjusting the transfer portal window to 15 days, starting after the conclusion of the men’s and women’s Final Fours.
The NCAA said Wednesday that the recommendations would go to the Division I Cabinet, where they would be reviewed in January. If approved, the legislation would go into effect in April.

Under the current rules, the transfer portal in basketball is 30 days and begins in late March, while postseason tournaments are still underway.
This year, the men’s portal window was open from March 24 to April 22. For women, it was March 25 to April 23.
Under the proposal, the women’s basketball notification-of-transfer window for the coming year would be April 6-20. The men’s notification period would be April 7-21.
The oversight committees also proposed a change to when athletes can request to enter the transfer portal after a coaching change.
The proposal, similar to one adopted in football, calls for the portal to open five days after a school officially hires a new coach. After those five days, athletes would have a 15-day window to notify their school of their intention to enter the portal.
Under the proposal, if a school does not hire a new coach within 30 days of the previous coach’s departure, athletes would have 15 days to enter the transfer portal starting on the 31st day.
Exceptions would be made for schools that make an in-season coaching change after Jan. 1. In those cases, athletes would have to wait until the April transfer window.

McCain notched 15 points (6-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound and three assists in 25 minutes during Tuesday’s 144-103 loss to the Magic.
Ever since being cleared to play 20-plus minutes, McCain has dropped 15 points in consecutive contests, hitting five threes on nine attempts in that span. McCain figures to be one of the main contributors off the bench for Philadelphia this season, and with VJ Edgecombe (calf), Kelly Oubre (knee) and Paul George (ankle) poised to miss some time, he could see himself with a larger role short-term.

The official head coach for Crenshaw High’s football team remains Robert Garrett even though he’s been barred from attending games on Los Angeles Unified School District property since Aug. 21, when he was placed on administrative leave.
His long-time assistant and Crenshaw grad, Terrence Whitehead, took over as interim coach the week before the opening game. He and assistants trained by Garrett since they were adolescents have the Cougars at 10-1 and playing for the City Section Open Division title against top-seeded Carson at 6 p.m. Saturday at L.A. Southwest College.
“I think he’s doing an outstanding job from where he’s been put,” Garrett said.
Garrett said it’s no surprise what Crenshaw has accomplished with 14 of 18 players returning from a team last season that lost by a single point in the opening round of the Division I playoffs to No. 1-seeded Eagle Rock. Add standout linebacker De’Andre Kirkpatrick to that group along with others and you have Crenshaw seeking its seventh City title.
“My thoughts are you win ballgames from January through July when you meet daily and go over fundamentals, skills and get bigger, stronger and faster. You win it in the weight room,” Garrett said.
Garrett said he has spoken to Whitehead weekly and seen games that were streamed. But he has no intention of attending Saturday’s game.
“I’ll be sitting in front of a TV watching USC versus UCLA,” he said.
Garrett praised Kirkpatrick, a transfer from eight-man power Animo Robinson who he met last spring and summer.
“He’s by far a Division I player,” he said of the 6-foot-3, 225-pound junior. “You can’t coach size. He has good attitude. Doesn’t cuss, doesn’t fuss and doesn’t hang out. It doesn’t come from me or anyone coaching him. All we can do is motivate him and encourage him to do better.”
To say Garrett is fed up with LAUSD is an understatement. There has been no celebration of the greatest achievement by a football coach in City Section history. Crenshaw’s 10 wins give him 300 career victories since 1988, which puts him in Hall of Fame territory.
“I’m going to coach somewhere, somehow,” he said. “I was born to coach. I’m a helluva coach. Nobody gave me that and nobody can take it away.”
Garrett said he has never been told what is being investigated the last four months.
“I’m going to coach again. I’m going to get out of the house real soon because I’m an American citizen,” he said.
He continues to receive full pay while staying home and waiting to be cleared. Once LAUSD starts an investigation, it can last more than a year. Former Huntington Park basketball coach Joe Reed returned this year after 14 months on administrative leave after a parental complaint.
“I haven’t been told anything,” Garrett said. “All I’ve been told is we’re investigating. It doesn’t matter what happens because whatever they tell me what they are investigating, they will find no wrongdoing whatsoever.”
Garrett is writing a book. He said he was the first from his Jefferson High graduating class of 1977 to earn a college degree. His mother was one of 18 siblings and each one had six or more kids. He graduated from Nebraska’s Concordia University in 1981 with a focus on teaching and has a Lutheran teaching certificate. He could be a pastor if he wanted to.
“I’m not a coach, I’m an educator,” he said. “I’m the first in my family to get a college degree. You don’t know what I’ve been through and what I’ve seen.”
He offered words of wisdom for Thanksgiving: “Always do thy duty, which is best, leave unto the Lord the rest.”
You’ve heard the line, “Win one for the Gipper.” Now it’s, “Win one for The G Man.”

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Julian Sayin has done everything that has been asked of him in his first season as Ohio State’s starting quarterback.
Yet what remains is a signature drive or performance.
That opportunity comes Saturday, as the redshirt freshman leads the top-ranked Buckeyes into The Big House to face No. 15 Michigan and a quest to end a four-game losing streak to “The Team Up North.”
Sayin enters The Game leading the Football Bowl Subdivision with a 79.4% completion rate and 185.38 quarterback rating, having thrown for 2,832 yards, 27 touchdowns, and only four interceptions.
Despite Sayin’s impressive season, coach Ryan Day maintains the same expectations he had on Aug. 30, when Sayin first started against then top-ranked Texas.
“Lead the team to a victory. That’s it at the end of the day,” Day said on Tuesday. “What does that look like? It depends on how the game plays out. But he’s got to do his job, make great decisions. He’s shown composure this year. But again, now he has to be at his best.”
Sayin follows a strong lineage of Ohio State quarterbacks since Day arrived in 2017. Dwayne Haskins (2018), Justin Fields (2019), C.J. Stroud (2021), and Kyle McCord (2023) averaged 3,927 passing yards, 40 TDs, and six interceptions, along with a 68.9% completion rate during their first seasons.
“Quarterback is elite,” said Michigan coach Sherrone Moore, calling Ohio State’s passing game “potent” and one of the best in the country.
Sayin arrived at Ohio State after initially committing to Alabama and entering the transfer portal following a coaching change. He played four games last season before winning the starting job.
He immediately showed he was up to the task. Day and offensive coordinator Brian Hartline deliberately didn’t put much on Sayin’s plate for the opener against Texas, but he had a 40-yard touchdown pass to Carnell Tate early in the fourth quarter that put the Buckeyes up by two touchdowns. Ohio State held on for a 14-7 victory that has kept it atop the AP Top 25 for 13 straight weeks, tying its second-longest run.
Sayin is only the second FBS quarterback in the last 40 years to have three games in a season with at least 300 yards passing, three touchdowns, no interceptions, and a completion rate of at least 80%. West Virginia’s Geno Smith was the other in 2012.
The best part of Sayin’s game for most of the season was his deep ball. He is 22 of 34 on passes more than 20 air yards with 11 touchdowns and no interceptions. According to Pro Football Focus, his 95.9 grade on deep throws is second to Oregon’s Dante Moore (96.8).
He is 14 of 17 for 560 yards and seven touchdowns on deep throws between the numbers.
Cleveland Browns offensive coordinator Tommy Rees, who recruited Sayin to Alabama when he was the offensive coordinator in 2023 under Nick Saban, has not been surprised with Sayin’s development.
“You look at his completion percentage and might be thinking, ‘this guy is throwing bubble (screens) and RPOs.’ They’re not. They’re pushing the ball down the field,” Rees said. “They’re running real routes and concepts with those guys. He has that natural ability to place the ball where he wants.”
However, with Tate and Jeremiah Smith hampered by injuries during the past three games, Sayin’s ability to attempt and complete deep passes has been limited. Tate has been sidelined since getting injured in pregame warmups against Purdue on Nov. 8, while Smith has not played since the first half against UCLA on Nov. 15.
Sayin, who is fourth with 9.4 yards per attempt, did not attempt a deep pass in last week’s 42-9 win over Rutgers after going just 2 for 7 the previous two games.
Day said on Tuesday that Tate and Smith will “be getting physical and mental reps all week.”
On a podcast hosted by OSU safety Caleb Downs and his brother, Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs, Smith said, “I should be good to go Saturday.”
Injuries have led Sayin to build chemistry with other receivers and tight ends, including Brandon Inniss and Max Klare.
“I think just getting more comfortable in the offense. We’re just doing some different things, spreading the ball around, playing with tempo, playing with quick game, and it’s a good thing for us,” Sayin said after the UCLA game.
Sayin is an underdog Heisman contender, but an outstanding performance at Michigan or in the Big Ten Championship could change the narrative — if the Buckeyes win.
Sayin remains focused on improvement instead of awards.
“I think all around I can be better. I can get through my reads quicker, helping us out in protection a little better and helping us in the run game more. I think, all around, just trying to improve and keep growing my game to the next level,” he said.

Over the last decade, my byline has made refrigerators, graduation boards, hall of fame showcases, been stuffed into fire pits and lined litter boxes – unintentionally and perhaps intentionally. 
I’ve typed ‘Petoskey’ more than 25,000 times in a decade – yes, I keep track of everything – and published an average of right around 500 articles a year.
It’s been an honor to turn this corner of northern Michigan into my home. 
I know I’ve had some loyal readers, along with others who would read about anything that makes the sports section. I thank you both. 
That’s what this time of year is about, right? Reflecting on what we have, rather than what’s missing. While it’s a challenge in a shrinking newsroom, I have great support in an industry where that can be rare. 
When it comes to my readers, however, I do play favorites. And before you jump in Boyne City and Charlevoix fans, I don’t mean it like that. Save that rivalry for another day. 
I have an actual favorite reader: My grandmother, or Nana, as she’s better known. 
Most of you know I didn’t actually grow up here despite being born in Petoskey. Family has been here my entire life, though, including my nana. 
A 1955 graduate of Petoskey who grew up on Kalamazoo Street, she’s spent all of my life living in Indian River. 
As you’d expect, I come from a pretty sports crazed family and Nana certainly helped in that. A fanatic of all things University of Michigan, the Detroit Tigers and anything competitive on TV that day. She’ll even watch my beloved Miami Hurricanes and text me during games. 
It’s not hard to see how I ended up in this job. 
But, the more I think about it, the more I realize I’ve come to love this job more because of her passion. 
She of course grew up when the newspaper and the Petoskey News-Review was the only way to get the news. I’d be naive to believe it’s still the only way, but I do still believe it’s the best way. She certainly does, too. 
She followed the likes of Jerry Rosevear, Andy Sneddon and Steve Foley before me. If you ask her, I’m probably her favorite. But I don’t know, Jerry’s tough to beat. 
Nana still subscribes and anxiously awaits the paper meeting the mailbox each weekday.
I hear from her what seems to be weekly about articles written or photos taken. She keeps up on my work more than anyone. 
But talk about pressure. 
I can’t imagine there are many accountants, teachers and plumbers having their worked checked daily by their grandmother, but I’m just lucky I guess. 
She knows when I might have an off day, with my byline missing or when times turn from busy to slow.
What she doesn’t know is I think of her often when I finish a piece I’m fond of, hoping she’ll enjoy it. I usually find out in a text or call about it or she’ll show me the article saved to show friends or family. 
How lucky am I to have that kind of support for my job? I’m certainly thankful. 
It’s rare that I ever actually hear from anyone I write about and that’s certainly not necessary, though I do love to hear she enjoyed an article on a local athlete. 
I don’t want to waste anyone’s time reading, especially my nana’s.
I didn’t know this is what I’d end up doing, in a place that’s always felt like home, but there’s a chance I was pulled to. 
When you walk into her house you’ll find a typed letter, framed and hanging on the wall. At the top is a title: ‘Nana’s House’. 
Since my high school years, it’s hung in the same spot. Though, I didn’t write it. My brother, Ryan, had the honors of describing all things that make being at our nana’s house special. 
‘Nana’s House’ is part brilliant and beautiful and another part torture for the rest of us who were beat to the punch. Well played, Ryan. 
Of all the places my byline has been, perhaps I’ve always been chasing my own spot on that wall. I couldn’t tell you to be honest. I know I’m fine without it. 
What I’m most thankful for is just having the love, support and a loyal reader like you, Nana.

Manistique swimmers prepare for meet against Marquette on Nov. 24, 2025 at Manistique High School.
MANISTIQUE — The Manistique boys opened their swimming diving season on a positive note, earning a 65-58 victory over the Marquette Sentinels
Manistique’s girls held their own in a 93-57 loss.
“I was very happy,” Emeralds’ coach Parker Birr said. “We had only two weeks to prepare for this meet. We have a relatively young team. Some of them are learning the basics.
“Our feeder program (Manistique Sharks) is in its third year. “This is the first time we’ve had some experience in diving. Although, the varsity meets are much more competitive because the kids are swimming longer distances. We’re definitely building some depth.”
Manistique senior Andrea LaDaga won the boys’ 100-yard freestyle race in 1:16.44 and anchored the winning 200 medley relay.
Emeralds’ senior Spencer Miotke added a first in 100 breaststroke (1:25.08).
“We had some fantastic swims by seniors Spencer and Alex Harrison along with some impressive swims for Logan Clauss, Micah Connin and Andrea which helped round out the points in this meet.”
Junior Beau Deiter was Marquette’s leader, taking the 200 individual medley at 2:40.58, 500 freestyle (6:05.54) and helping the Sentinels win the 200 and 400 freestyle relays.
“This was a pretty good learning experience,” Sentinels’ freshman Luther Deiter said. “I’m happy with the way it went. I also found some things I need to work on.”
Senior Kyra Carlson provided the Manistique girls with a victory in 50 freestyle (34.51).
“On the girls’ side, strong swims from Leslie Connin, Kyra Carlson, Keira Hart, Maya Carlson and Lily Knaffla brought a competitive fight to the Sentinels.
“We also had some emerging divers perform at this meet. Logan Clauss and Maya and Kyra Carlson all debuted their diving prowess in the pool today with two exhibition dives apiece. We’re happy to have a few divers with spacial awareness. It’s helpful learning more than freestyle and backstroke starting out.”
Marquette junior Kaytlin Roell and sophomore Lillianna Fogaroli had a hand in four firsts each.
Both were part of the winning 200 medley and 400 freestyle relays.
Roell copped 100 breaststroke (1:28.83) and 500 freestyle (5:42.47) and Fogaroli took 100 butterfly (1:34.76) and 200 freestyle (2:28.23).
Junior Sophie Hausmann, who anchored the 200 freestyle relay, added firsts in diving with 212.05 points and 100 freestyle (1:13.1).
The Emeralds, who swam against Rudyard and Sault Ste. Marie at Rudyard Tuesday, visit the Northern Lights YMCA pool in Escanaba for a dual meet with Gladstone Dec. 4.
Marquette is idle until Dec. 18 when it hosts Kingsford.
