transfer portal

. . . good chances are that if you can't bump anyone for playing time, they are not worth wanting . . . anywhere . . . and if they are, we may get one season with them and they are gone . . . it takes a crap load of one season players to fill a team . . . and we can only have 85 . . .

You are thinking from a defeatist point of view.

First: Why would a school start a raw 3-star over a proven, experienced, 4-star and two other 4-star players ahead of them? They won't, they never will, so why sign with them in the first place.

I have been using the term "Talent Graveyard" for two decades because that is exactly what they are.

Now add the influx of proven 2-stars to their transfer roles and you have a unique situation of available 3-stars from high school and (raw) 3-star players being spit out the straw.

It takes work and a willingness to recruit players you thought you had no chance at when they were in high school.

. . . From the outside looking in it may not seem that difficult however there is much more too it than meets the eye. . .

. . . maybe after 20 years, you should consider allowing the "Talent Graveyard" to RIP in the graveyard . . . surely you would not be the only one to recognize this as a viable concept over a period of 20 years . . .

Package the massive Jennings DT teammate that hit portal 2 days ago........Trevor Etienne is Florida's 15th portal so far.

I stopped counting.....Has to be well over 100 FBS RBs in portal now. Even more WR. Crazy #'s.

. . . does anyone think we actually have a realistic opportunity to pick up a player like Etienne . . .

So, the cat was let out of the bag supposedly joking the first time. His former HS coach told a friend of mine he is trying to get more money from Napier because he has been offered more by other programs. I will say it again Billy Napier is getting a little taste of his own medicine.

What is 191? # of FBS WR in portal as of this moment. ONE HUNDRED NINETY-ONE

Vast majority are 3 & 4 stars

[CajunVic]

. . . that is a league CMD does not have the money to play in . . .

Are you kidding?

Seriously, the talent graveyard scenario is worse now more than ever.

A buck for a bench.

Over the weekend you were discussing at least they get the money.

That means they wasted their talent for temporary money.

As for me, I say scrap the stadium and close the doors if you have a pay kids to have the honor of getting educated and playing a game! Let the NCAA/P5 burn in hell. We, as a society, have let the inmates take over the asylum! Money _____s!

Almost, but its much simpler than misidentification.

Three star players that arrive at "Talent Graveyards" only to ride the bench for 2 years don't stay 3 stars players.

Two star players at talent growth centers that hit the field as freshmen become the equivalent of 4 star players.

This isn't true.
