Transfer Portal chaos opens at midnight

The second portal window opens Tue, Apr 16. This is a realignment topic to some degree in that the money will obviously be a factor in buying players now and down the road. It's almost a farm system for the rich. Not a fan of the 2nd portal window, nor the window opening just prior to bowl games...bad timing. It's almost as if the NCAA can't get anything right. Here is a small clip from last night's Josh Pate Show recommended for those that don't understand what is about to happen. First, I didn't realize a considerable amount of players got cut off rosters during this time in addition to transferring. Sorry kid, you wanted to be treated like a pro athlete so here you go. Good luck. Second, the SEC cannot poach players from other SEC schools. What that means...Alabama, Ole Miss, Georgia, Florida, LSU, Texas, Oklahoma...they are all coming hard to buy players from other schools outside the SEC. Starting rosters are about to be altered at the very top and there is no recourse before August practice to replace those losses.

Sounds good, if SEC teams can't poach from other SEC, then lets go after

7 players from AL alone committed to SEC schools (12 with TX included)

They can go from SEC to SEC, they just have to sit out a year
Victor Tango 04/16/24 08:50 AM ET
Doubt that's true, you wouldn't have that many players doing it to sit
Vienna_Hokie 04/16/24 09:34 AM ET
I think the sit out.......

SEC: Southeastern Cartel**

Why can’t SEC schools poach from other SEC schools? That’s collusion.

If it doesn’t go to court one day, I”ll be shocked.**
Stech 04/16/24 12:38 PM ET
won't go to court because they won't try to defend it
Vienna_Hokie 04/16/24 02:34 PM ET
Good point, shouldn’t have said court, should have said it’ll be contested.**
Stech 04/16/24 02:39 PM ET
Just like the GOR agreements of the 4 standing conferences

Antitrust laws do not apply to the SEC
