Ohio State's Bjork pleads to CFP leaders for calendar change

Ohio State athletic director Ross Bjork unveiled a call to action at the College Football Playoff meetings, urging a significant overhaul of the college football calendar due to years of disruptions. He emphasized that fixing the schedule is crucial to avoid unintended consequences and highlighted how his institution faced challenges with athletes winning national titles while classes began late, impacting training hours under NCAA rules. Bjork also proposed aligning the transfer portal with a 10-day period in May to better coordinate player contracts with revenue share agreements, stressing that adherence to new rules is essential for its success.
