It's always possible that a high school athlete gets all caught up in the recruitment hype to find out ,as another post stated,once you're signed,a coach doesn't see or know you after you have arrived.Homesick,lonely,or stuck in a roomful of 4-5 stars,the portal is a lifesaver.A one time only no year wait allowance gives freedom to change.after the one time transfer,every other move should have a one year wait for eligiability.That being said,Coach ,go poach that transfer pool for what you need right now.
