The Oversight Committee has been busy so far this spring, with the latest report coming out at the end of last week. This is looking at changing the FBS football calendar to have everyone start the year on what is currently Week 0, the weekend before Labor Day. The regular season would still end Thanksgiving weekend, making the two bye-week schedule that happens every so often permanent. The hope is that this creates more flexibility in the CFB schedule, including the potential for changes to the playoffs. It will now be discussed in June, and if approved, it will go into effect for the 2027 season.

Jim Mora called the spring practices successful for the Rams, with a lot of progress. They ended the spring with 24 players missing due to injury, so the top concern is getting healthier. It sounds like they could have some incoming transfers if the five-for-five rule goes into effect. Mora declined to release a depth chart, saying no player has cemented their spot at this time.
Mountain West commissioner Gloria Nevarez sat down and shared her thoughts on the conference and how quickly they were to fill the spots of the departing members. About the lawsuits, she is standing by the bylaws and the position of the policies that were adopted by all members at that time. Some interesting notes in the post, the Grant of Rights has no minimum collection from the lawsuits, making it binding even if they lose the lawsuit. Also, in her opinion, Nevarez said 12 football teams is the ideal number, but they are stable enough where they can be more selective now.
