Jon Sumrall Reveals Two Changes He Wants To See In College Football

New Florida head coach Jon Sumrall was on the show Next Up with Adam Breneman recently and talked about two changes he would like to see in college football.

For starters, Sumrall wants to get the college football season to end as close to January 1st as possible.

He also wants more transparency around NIL. Per On3:

“You’ve got to make two [changes],” Sumrall said. “One would be to get the calendar closer to where the National Championship Game is, closer to January 1. I don’t think TV is going to allow that anytime soon, but we still have this thing in college football called school. Some of them are in class right now. I think the Transfer Portal window and the College Football Playoff timeline, when we finish the season and when the second semester starts, is all kind of off.

“So, move the start of the season up and amend what the season looks like. Whether that’s less regular season games, or you want to extend the Playoffs. I’m fine with that, but to me it’s more about ‘why can’t we end on January 5 or 6, and not January 25?’ That’s a big one.”

“Maybe more transparency than what we’ve had established around NIL and rev-share,” Sumrall continued. “I’d love to see a legitimate space where we’re all kind of doing the same thing. Right now, you have the element of the Yankees vs. the Royals in FBS Division I football. How do we get to where we’re more alike than different?”
