I doubt it...
MBHokie90 • 08/18/23 02:51 PM ET
It sounds as though on net, inferior players are being run off. If so, why

Overwhelming majority of players are in the portal because they were cut...
GCHokie34 • 08/17/23 04:42 PM ET
Well more than half 55% did find a new home so overwhelming majority may be
vtox1 • 08/23/23 09:08 AM ET
Lots to unpack there...

Had a friend who played at Tech before the TP was even dreamed of.He was

The NCAA made it legal to cut players within a certain period of time...
GCHokie34 • 08/26/23 09:10 AM ET
We hear a ton about coaches not liking the portal. I call hogwash and
IronBlood • 08/17/23 04:11 PM ET
Taking advantage of it doesn't necessarily equate to liking it.
Pylons • 08/18/23 02:38 PM ET
Pretty high percentage of players enter portal involuntarily because they

Every team probably has half the rooster not getting all the playing time
uber hokie • 08/26/23 08:52 AM ET
And fans never complain about those transfers**
vtbball80 • 08/22/23 12:08 PM ET
Exactly
Vippie1 • 08/17/23 04:32 PM ET
Were many able to stay where they were or were bridges burned?**
JRHokie73 • 08/17/23 02:50 PM ET
Most of them were cut...
GCHokie34 • 08/18/23 10:12 AM ET
In some cases, the coaches suggested the transfer portal.
HokieJack • 08/17/23 03:14 PM ET
I don't think that's less painful.
Pylons • 08/18/23 02:50 PM ET
A suggestion goes something like this. (Yes, it is painful)
HokieJack • 08/18/23 03:11 PM ET
Well, that's pulling the scholarship, not really "suggesting the portal"
Pylons • 08/18/23 03:25 PM ET
Of course, football and basketball are head count sports.
HokieJack • 08/20/23 03:04 PM ET
I think it's pretty well established that players get cut.
Pylons • 08/20/23 03:38 PM ET
I think we will see a drop when covid eligible players are gone. **
vthhhi • 08/17/23 02:40 PM ET
I doubt it.
HokieJack • 08/17/23 03:16 PM ET
there were a lot more kids with eligibility left than normal, more to push
Vienna_Hokie • 08/17/23 08:45 PM ET
Some players want a lower conference in order to play more and have better
DGHOKIE • 08/17/23 01:28 PM ET
Maybe there are some regulatory changes
soflahokie • 08/17/23 01:16 PM ET
So where do they end up?JUCO?Div.2?Playing in some obscure overseas league?**
HokieBrazil • 08/17/23 01:14 PM ET
Is there anybody out there educating the players about the risk
VT ChemE 1986 • 08/17/23 12:56 PM ET
The risk they are taking by being cut?**
GCHokie34 • 08/20/23 01:39 PM ET
in a lot of cases, I doubt it. Young people make dumb decisions. **
