Portal season (Abson, Spillers, etc)

[PhillyApp1]

Why even go to class?

Do you really think UNCheat is making athletes pass courses ?

Pretty soon it'll be Pass/Fail classes that all athletes Pass

[biggie]

Mantis in portal now too.

The way it's going it won't be long before student is dropped from the phrase "student athlete".

Mantis in portal now too.

That may turn out to be a positive move for us.

[311neers]

X Brown portal as well. Wow, just wow.

[ASU2012]

Fuck this

[AppSt94]

X Brown portal as well. Wow, just wow.

X is from California and wants to get closer to home. He has zero family support at games.

So, every year, our roster is going to be made up of a bunch of mercenaries who will bolt for a better offer at the end of the season?

No thanks. I’m out.

That is my fear and that people will want out. It does stink. And remember some of these mercenaries will hold us boosters up for 100k just to stay. LOL

This has reached absurd. 7 in the portal, 1 out of eligibility, and 1 who graduated and isn't returning but has a year of eligibility left. We have Luke Wilson, Myles Tate, & Terence Harcum returning on scholarship. Just, wow. Oh yeah, plus however many incoming players we have.

[NattyBumppo'sRevenge]

Harcum and Tate might be the best players returning in the Sun Belt

[AppSt94]

Welcome to the world of capatilism. Athletics style.

[appvette]

This is far from a free market

[Stonewall]

Harcum and Tate might be the best players returning in the Sun Belt

You might be right.

[BambooRdApp]

You might be right.

Hmm. Never, all these other players in the portal mat just change jerseys to other sub Belt teams

[Bigdaddyg1]

This is beyond ridiculous. I'm sitting here trying to think of what to say and I literally have nothing.

Anyone know if this craziness with the portal this off-season is endemic for all mid-majors (not just the Sun Belt)? Like losing half your roster to the portal alone?

[beav910]

I know JMU has had some players enter the portal but are any other SBC teams experiencing this level of attrition?

[AppStFan1]

Harcum and Tate might be the best players returning in the Sun Belt

If either of them go then I am going to assume Kerns is not coming back. There is no way every player leaves but our coaching staff is returning. I am keeping an eye on Harcum.

I saw where Pepperdine lost three players with one transferring to Gonzaga. Got to suck seeing your best guy go to a conference rival.
