Yes you can get some roster fillers and perhaps a “few” bright spots, but to outline 2/3 of the starters with portal players will eventually lead to long term issues. Further, it will be difficult to get “that” player from a P5 to a G5. Times are changing. Now you have to think of an incoming freshmen as a free agent after he gets on campus. Not enough playing time? I'm transferring. I'm pretty good? I'm transferring. The portal has changed college sports forever. Throw in the NIL stuff and, my guess, is college sports will not be as entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But just like recruiting, everyone is going after the same good players. Thus, it’s unlikely we get many four star players. We will still get the 3 star player in the portal (who maybe used to be a 4 star) instead of the 3 star freshman, but this time we only get a few years vs 4 years. Just because a kid went to Michigan and could not cut it does not necessarily make him better. Edited October 15, 2021 by NewEnglandBull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure, you have to recruit them even after they sign and are on the team. Everyone (coaches) will be pulling double duty.
