Not sure this solves the problem. There was still a lot of movement in baseball before the portal ever came around.Quote:

Let the one safe bird in the hand go to save the endangered birds in the bush and 3 bird lives could be lost for no reason. ;)
Georgia Tech had another guy go into portal today. That makes eight former Yellow Jackets moving on. Wonder if NCAA realized how much this would impact the game when approval of transfer without penalty was approved. How do you build your team for the next season when eight guys leave. Perhaps it is an anomaly this off season due to 20-21 being a free year.
It’s probably the future unless the portal comes with the cost of a lost year of eligibility.Quote:

Last year Akuwba, Butts, and Gordon all transferred in from other D-1 programs and all 3 were granted a waiver. With the one time transfer rule it’s now like everyone gets a free waiver, I guess that cuts down on whatever process that was.Quote:

I also think the cat is now out of the bag and you can't put it back. With the likelihood of the revenue from image/likeness likely to pass soon, preventing someone from movement might be considered a restriction of trade/work, right?
I am much more concerned about losing Mylik Wilson than Cedric Russell. Wilson leads Texas Tech in Assists and Steals, and has an Assist/Turnover Ration of 8.5/1. Tech and Ohio State are both picked just under the elites in their respective conferences.
What is ironic, is that having sat next to Wison's family at a few games, Wilson and Russell did not like playing with each other. If Russell had left earlier, Wilson may still be with the team.Quote:

To show you how fast he has grasped the discipline of the team he is on... Mylik has only taken two 3-point shots. Now I know the season is young but he took 81 threes in 2019-20 and 53 last year.
