I get what you are saying I just think it's overstated. Basketball Is different as players can jump to the NBA out of highschool or 1 year in college. They can't do that in football. They have to stay 3 years before they jump. Yes, they can get in the portal, and right now, it's a mess, but I really believe in a year or two, there will be guardrails in place with a much tighter window on the portal. As for my Buckeyes, most of the draft eligible players didn't leave and decided to come back for unfinished business and obviously nil helped and I'm glad for it. It's a win win!!!I think boosters will be hesitant to donate if the college they are invested in that spend years recruiting a 4-5 star has no guarantee that the player stays there. Kinda like the stock market, no stability then my money is going elsewhere.
I have no interest in a football team that basically turns into a one and done basketball team, not playing instead of developing they hit the portal. Every one of these kids think they are the stud because they were coddled during HS. Sorry kiddos but a very small percentage of the so called studs make it to the big show. Don't worry you will have the XFL or Canadian league pick you up.
