Transfer Portal

They get tired of playing in a half ass media town in front of half ass crowds...I'd leave too...

Florida fans: I don’t get why you’re so upset, all your coach has to do is hire more people.

^Casual Florida fans that have never been in a position to hire anyone.

You know how long it takes to hire a FTE for a single role? Let alone all of the support staff roles we need to hire for.

Florida fans kept saying it was a business. Well, imagine if the director of your most profitable department left and gutted the department on the way out. Don’t think you would just shake the guy’s hand and say, well gee…that’s just business, and go skipping down the sidewalk.

Wait till Nap does the same to them when he heads to Bama and takes half the staff with him. Look fwd to reading what they say then

It’s not certain that these players in the portal will end up in Gainesville. They got limitations on roster spots and access to the highest rated players in the country.

I’m just worried that we’re losing our best players to the college equivalent of free agency. It’s extremely disappointing. These guys are game changers for us, on scholarship and thriving. You want to gamble and end up somewhere else? I’m not going to ask what’s driving them.

What needs to happen is when these kids don’t find the “better” landing spot they are looking for and want to return, every coach/team should say “sorry we have moved on, good luck to you”

FL fans confirmed: Napier showed up at Florida and realized he inherited a mess of a program from Mullin. Napier took the easy way and pretty much took our entire staff and now taking our players with him. Yes he hired the staff, but he is now gutting our program at his personal gain. Screw the program that made you into who you are. Guess all ethics are out the door now.
NCAA will not investigate Florida on these players leaving issues. They are scared to touch the big time P5 programs.

Don't panic

P5 only has so many slots.

MoJeaux will replace a 5-star somewhere who will then enter the portal.

The portal is open straw recruiting. Pull one in on one end and it pushes someone else out the other end.

That would only be valuable if it taught highschoolers a future lesson.

He will regret that decision in the long run. Might get used next year then Nap will bring in guys with better speed. He doesn't have the break away speed most good running backs do at that level.

Stars in his eyes. Oh well, next guy up.

Not really, it teaches everyone else already in your locker room a lesson as well. You better be sure the grass is greener

I'm worried that if you can't recruit the guys you have in-house, you will soon find yourself in the outhouse.

I think a lack of social media coaching announcements is playng into this phenomenon.

[Cajun Power]

Even if it is “just business,” it’s still infuriating and reflects poorly on Napier. These two things can be true at the same time.

I would bet the players are hearing more about coaches and staff than what’s being portrayed to the public.
