transfer portal

No. Not necessarily. There could be some. Des needs to shop those fringe P5 guys that could be good G5, but aren’t getting the playing time they want at the P5 school.

He definitely is now, almost all of them former Louisiana HS kids. The question remains, will they want to come here?

Ide imagine we will see more after the bowl game?

I get the logic, but there are a lot of teams in bowls that have many more players in the portal than we do at the moment. Still think it is an encouraging sign for us, at the moment.

This would be consistent about what Des has always said about the portal. For the most part, they aren't looking to take anyone from the portal that they didn't recruit out of HS. He wants to know the kids, family, etc. It would make sense that this would be mostly Louisiana HS kids.

So in the words of Stevie P, a small sample size.

Talk about limiting your options.

This is naive thinking. This is the time you get to know a kid of he can help your team win.

We're going to have to recruit and compete for 5-6 playmakers in the portal each year.

. . . “Playmakers” . . . are usually those in the portal looking for $$$ . . . how is CMD going to compete for those and bring them home when we don’t have $$$ to pay the playmakers already on our team to keep them out of the portal . . .

Are you a dumb@$$ in real life or do you just play one on RP?

What happens to the players who go in the portal, but get no offers? Are they looked at differently on the team?

They should be kicked off the team as soon as a discussion with the coach happens or they enter the portal.

I think Mike's makes them clean put their locker as soon as the enter the portal.

[CajunEXPRESS]

CMD should treat them like the prodigal son. Kill the fatted calf and have a joyful party
