Transfer Portal?

Or.....the system could help them learn some valuable lessons like; evaluate your choices wisely, commitment, tenacity, over coming some adversity, the team concept as opposed to the individual. So many valuable life lessons they could learn and apply but no, if they don't like something, anything, about their situation then just quit and go elsewhere.

The transfer portal- screwing up players and CFB since inception.

So far the portal seems like a cluster f#&% and net negative for CFB.

 
Right but these guys have been in the program for three years. I mean is there something other then losing that is going on in the program? 

Warner could catch at one time..... he dropped 4 TD passes this year

Farniok is Meh to me

Agree. Maybe what this situation needs is some balance. If players can come and go willy nilly, maybe schools should award schollies the same way. Pull it anytime they aren't producing. Not sure why we should expect schools to honor commitments if players don't have to.

 
What I have heard...Luke wants to be a QB. He was never going to pass Adrian and Smothers was going to pass him. Frost asked him to consider WR.
 

If he is unwilling to change positions, this is actually a good sign for the program. Smothers is developing.

I’m really starting to see this as a player/portal problem. 
 

kids either stay or they don’t. It’s like “whatever” at this point. What can you do if a freaking team captain who drops 4 td passes leaves? What can you do if a kid who was a star recruit who, by all eye test measures, will never be a good/great D1 QB but could be a real versatile college star just leaves?  
 

im just setting my mind as: ride or die with the kids who are here and want to be here. Not even gonna discuss guys who leave anymore.

Could be, but it also could be that he's just better than a guy who threw 1 TD and 6 INTs in limited action.  Not a high bar.

 
QB has to be a priority now in the transfer portal for the 1 (or possibly 2 spots if we miss on Dickerson) spots left. Austin Kendall and James Blackman are two names that stick out to me that are in the portal but not sure if immediate playing time is something they are seeking in a fit. 

JUCO may be the only option to try and provide depth.
