I don't know...this portal thing is really starting to make college athletics not as fun. I'm having a hard time getting attached to athletes like I would in the past because my brain tells me they won't be around long. It seems impossible for coaches to create a positive locker room environment when half or more of your team turns over every year. I keep hearing if kids don't get playing time or NIL $ they expect they become pain in the ass all season. Most of these kids bitching about NIL money haven't performed to deserve it and end up entering the portal to find more money and still don't perform and deserve it. A lot of these players don't develop like they should because they bounce around. Kids don't want to stay at a program to accept the development.
The best QB in the league is a kid that was no longer wanted at a major program because they had to ensure their freshman blue chip started. The freshman ended up sucking, program had its worst record in 20 years, and the QB that got forced out is probably going to play for a National Championship.
It's a rough ridin' mess. Add in the ESPN/SEC/big 10 love affair and it's really killing my interest.
