Is this the biggest loss yet?

In the rotation, but I think we’re deep enough in the defensive backfield that it won’t make much of a difference.

Looks like he may be staying in conference. Offers from ODU and JMU.

Never like losing a guy. Especially a contributor.

We are losing guys to the portal. Are we picking any up too? I know that doesn't seem to be Des' MO, but if there is talent out there that would fit into the program, why not? We've hit on several transfers in the past few years.

Portal players are a high risk because you’re stuck with them. You better be confident in their abilities and the chemistry risk.

The recruiting game has changed if you are not using the portal you will be left behind.

Brandon Bishops mother was the prettiest girl that I worked with on campus back in the day. She was absolutely gorgeous. She had that skin tone like she was from Grand Marias. Has nothing to do with transferring or the portal just thought I would throw that in.

It seems if and whom we sign from portal going forward and seeing who has gone where already......it totally depends on size of the NIL offer for anyone with proven on field talent.

Portal is free agency...for some it's a good move. Not so for others.

For NON Grad transfers.......To me there should be a formal reimbursement of some sort. G5 and to some degree FCS are paying for all the upfront development cost of players......once player is a proven commodity the P5 pays these players to leave with no actual university expenses to the P5 as the NIL is paid 100% by boosters.....but done so on behalf of the P5.

He will be a graduate transfer. He has his degree, so it's not uncommon to transfer out as a Grad student athlete.

He said he is a grad transfer. I have a hard time thinking it is a bad idea for a kid like that to get a Masters at another school. If he can get into a "more prestigious" school for his next degree, good for him
