The PORTAL

according to Yahoo, THE Ohio State University has won signing day!!!

How you ask? They did it by using lawyers to convince the NCAA and its feckless leader that the 5* recruit who went to Georgia knowingly lining up behind a million other 5* recruits and then got pissy that he wouldn't see the field for 2-3 more years was troubled by being slandered by someone at Georgia.

This guy (me, not the yahoos at Yahoo) thinks the can of worms is officially opened and it will be fun or infuriating (depends if your team gets or loses its favorite bench warmer) to watch all the divorced parents gettin' paid as National Transfer Portal Court Day becomes so popular that ESPN will have a full day's coverage dedicated to it. Lots of live interviews with senior partners at some of the nation's most illustrious law firms. In-studio analysis by Jackie Chiles too!!

Tathan Martell... come on down! You are going to be starting for Miami in just a few months... you were "lied to by tOSU coaches, right? (wink wink)....right? That is a hardship! Good answer."

I glanced at 247Sports portal today - there is a ton of folks listed. A few 4/5 stars at different positions. Seems better than trying to get Juco players in.
 
If you are Les Miles or Mack Brown and you are trying to rebuild a depleted roster then yes, the portal seems like a good way to refill not your depth but to upgrade your starting line up due to the availability of immediate playing time. If you are Washington, Clemson or Alabama then bringing in guys who were not interested in competition or waiting their turn to start may be a bad idea. QB would be the major outlier here. They seem to have a much lower hit rate than most positions in recruiting and finding a good one can change the outlook on your season immediately. See, State, Ohio for confirmation of this fact.

I dunno, 11-2, top 10 finish sounds pretty Wisconsinish to me.

I think Wisconsin may have slipped a division title in along the way but the Cuogs almost did
 
The transfer portal is quite interesting honestly, does not list your position at first, only your name and former school. I'd assume this means that kids were already on the radars of coaches before entering the portal.

Gerald Willis was a comeback. Flamed out at Floriduh, took a leave of absence after a year at Miamuh, and then had a first round pick year this year.

Be positive!!!!!

Yes. His point was that you're? not Clemson or Alabama, and that you're closer to Wisconsin.

Can you not read pineapple?
