Football: As the number of player transfers continues to surge, college football is trying to adapt. These changes might help. A strong, deep dive from our Wilson Alexander here. Also, in case you missed it: You really want to read about Jimbo Fisher and Nick Saban again, don’t you? Of course you do. Scott Rabalais takes a spin.
