With the 2025 college football regular season concluded, it is now transfer portal season as many players will begin the process of finding new destinations for their playing future. Sonny Dykes has been active in the transfer portal during his tenure with the Horned Frogs, bringing in key pieces and All-Conference level performers. The TCU roster has also experienced turnover as players look for new opportunities and expanded roles outside of Fort Worth.
The transfer portal gets a makeover again in 2026, officially opening nationally on January 2, 2026 for a brief two-week window. With the spring portal window eliminated, this one-time winter window will provide a flurry of activity as teams scramble to rebuild rosters. Despite the official window opening in January, players at programs with coaching changes get an early window to declare for the portal and there will be plenty of players announcing intent to enter even before the formal transfer period begins.
We’ll be linking all our news stories about transfer portal information here throughout the offseason, covering impact to TCU and its opponents for the 2026 campaign.
