Is it possible to still transfer after the portal has closed? Is there a penalty for doing so?

Anyone that has entered the portal can transfer any time until they are attending classes at another school.

It is possible to still transfer if you didn't enter the portal, but the NCAA instituted new rules, for those kids.

"The Division I Cabinet adopted a proposal that penalizes programs that sign a transfer student-athlete, add a transfer student-athlete to a roster, or allow a transfer student-athlete to participate in athletically related activities before the student-athlete is entered into the NCAA Transfer Portal.

Penalties — which are automatically triggered — include a suspension of the respective sport's head coach for 50% of a season and a fine of 20% of that sport's budget."

There isn't a school out there that would accept those penalties.

I don't think it would stand up in court, but it hasn't be challenged yet.

Destiny Divine Gretchen Berry Cearah Aaliyah Jasmine Maddie Manuella Lety. I count 10. There's still 3 spots to be filled. I'm still hoping one of those is going to be someone who can contribute. We could still use some help at the post position.
Ah yes, how could I forget Jas.

Yep, Post is really all we are missing

The Athletic's way too early womens basketball top 25 has 11 B1G teams. Gonna be stronger than last year. Illini are not among them.
3. USC
6. Mich
10. Iowa
11. Neb
12. Minn.
13. Wash
15. MD
20. MSU
21. Ore
22. OSU

They have Oregon and Nebraska jumping over us in the standings. We shall see.

It should be called the Path letic for being so ridiculous for for the murky cloud in their foresight .I see no less than 8 or 9 teams on that lineup that I'm expecting victories over...I can't wait for the tour..Our Ill-ini women will be rockstars next year..Just watch....

From Werner’s podcast with Shauna, sounded like Manu and Lety getting mins at 5. Cearah will also provide minutes. but sounded like a Cearah will also get mins at the 4. Berry can play at the 3.
At least gives the team flexibility in the lineup.

Will be interesting to see how Manu has recovered from injury. May take some time or the whole year to get back to normal.
Guyton we saw about half a year to recover from injury, Lety took almost the whole year. Hope they can keep progressing and develop.
Berry is very good offensively but there no way she will be able to guard at the 3

Yes a backup center to Lety that can score and rebound inside would be an ideal get. Another spot up high% wing shooter would round out team.
