Winners and Losers of the College Football Transfer Portal so Far

I’m very confident he’s going to have a winning season in 22. Nine or more wins is my expectation.

8 is the minimum number for it to be a successfully season for us.

A lot of App fans want Clark gone if he don't win a championship next year. That's a successful season in their books

Honestly that’s not the feelings of the RPCA. You’ve been one of the most negative posters, and that’s fine. But the general feeling isn’t 8 games as a success. Right now I’m not sure we’d be a dog in any game except FSU. Now if we get all four of the new teams. Not sure any would have us a dog.

Still don't feel warm and fuzzy about the hire like some here. However 8 wins would be a successful season . We will be dogs in more than just 1 game in 2022.

Warm and fuzzy???

Hell you’ve called Acadian Ambulance at least five different times. They keep telling you it’s not a heart attack, just a panic attack.

I think we'll be dogs at Coastal and GA State

If the Belt adds all the new members for the 2022 season, I believe one of these games will have to get replaced with Southern Miss. I would imagine we would be favored against them.

What makes anybody think that some of the players that left would not have left if Napier would still be here. Everybody says it's all about the money. If the money is there it would have been there with or without Napier or Desormeaux or whom ever would have been the coach. Hell Alabama lost some players (5 or 6 I think) Georgia lost some too from what I understand. It's not just us.

Also, does anybody know what kind of deal these players signed and for how much money. The only thing I see is they left via the portal with no mention of any NIL money. I dunno maybe I missed it

The only thing I can see is this is one big cluster and it's not going to get better any time soon if ever.

First off, I don't think they can have a deal in place prior to entering the portal. That would indicate a level of ____ery that would have to be an issue in the eyes of the NCAA. I'm sure they survey potential offers once entered in the portal.

In regards to the programs you mentioned, I don't think they are good examples but you are right, players are entering from everywhere. Georgia and Alabama are losing players that are looking for more playing time. They are buried in a roster full of talented players and want to be able to play. We are losing players from a winning program who play major roles where playing time is not an issue. Some likely would have left anyhow such as McCaskill as he may want to be close to home or some may just want to hang it up but the reasons our players left and the ones at Alabama and Georgia are not the same.

I dont think the two that left for Florida would have done so, do you? Torrence would have been just fine elevating his draft status here at UL just as Dotson, Hunt and Mitchell have done. Johnson followed Juluke because that is the coach that talked him into not signing with other P5 programs after de committing from Arizona. I've known Juluke since he coached at Edna Karr, I've known how he operates for years.
