Not meant to cause a stir, but there should be a reminder that the portal works both ways. After a tough season, losses to the portal are inevitable, and it’s not always players we want to see leave.
I think Sark should be much more aggressive than the numbers Nahlin has in that article.
There has been a lot of speculation that our lack of high end recruits so far is because we are keeping our powder dry for the portal.
I still think that’s the case, but there’s very little information available about the portal stuff for obvious reasons. I certainly can’t say I have confidence in our plans there, because I simply don’t have a good barometer for what we can expect. All the positive info I heard was back when we were 4-1. Hopefully it means the staff is just keeping things air tight, but people friendly to the program are starting to wonder, and the silence from the staff isn’t really creating goodwill in the middle of a really frustrating run of football.
