By and large, I don’t think it will be worthwhile. The free

transfer rule seems to make it more likely to build a team if you are recruiting players from the portal that have already used their “free transfer”. This will make a new problem for lower profile programs in that the previously underrated players they recruited out of HS, who have now shown they can play, will have the bigger profile programs all over them, making it even harder for smaller profile programs to build their programs from under the radar players.

It is overblown that kids wont wait...
GCHokie34 • 05/03/22 02:26 PM ET
Love the truth and honesty that sadly many don’t want to hear GC. **

Maybe the truth lies somewhere in the middle

I wonder if taking a kid 3 years away from contributing in the modern world
BG Hokie • 05/03/22 09:38 AM ET
Asked the same question above. Feels like a bad bet on average.

Highlight tapes are often misleading.
GreenvilleVT • 05/03/22 07:32 PM ET
His highlights are the texbook "hes just bigger than everyone else" example
soflahokie • 05/03/22 01:08 PM ET
He's head and shoulders better on O than D

You've always had a good eye for talent so it has pained me to read this
