Transfer portals before playoffs are killing our depth

I’m sure coach H told you this at dinner last night. I highly doubt we “encourage” anyone to leave that is currently getting PT. Coaches like having depth and it’s very important over the gauntlet of a schedule. You’re just part of the “anyone leaving doesn’t hurt us and is an upgrade” crowd. Sometimes people leave that we prob didn’t want to. That’s life.

End of every season there’s discussion with players about their chances of getting on the field and contributing. Yeah sometimes kids leave we wouldn’t want to leave. And yeah the timing of it sucks for the team. Staff still has honest discussions with the players about their chances of getting on the field.

Keith has 31 carries in 2 years. He's already 4th and we have 2 more coming in.

Pretty much. I think Keith is pretty good but just not good enough for here. Yeah he was already behind Bishop, Lewis, and Seldon. Morris looks like he could get on the field early like Sampson, similar build different running style. Baker also coming in looks pretty good. I think Keith was pretty buried in the depth charts here but could make an impact somewhere else.

I don’t know about killing us but you gotta think there would be or is going to be a contract addendum to ensure they stay until the season is officially over.

We’re not going to have any depth with these transfers if we make a deep run. More games = more injuries. Not good. Huepel needs to do a better job keeping us together. We have a championship to play for

There should not be any portal transfers right now. They need to get a handle on this. The fact that a kid can go play somewhere for a season and bail isn’t right. IMO players should only be allowed 1 transfer and there should be stipulations on that.

This is the peak earning window for lots of these young men. It's not entitlement to make a business decision for your own future.

If anything, you're the entitled one thinking they owe you something.

Any male college football and basketball player is now officially for sale to the highest bidder. It’s now semi-pro college athletics.

Well done, grownups in charge.

Why would any player in these United States or anywhere around the world want to be considered as or be regarded by a team as "depth"? Yuck. I'd pass on that too...

Their season is over. Nobody left any team who would have been playing a vital role for that team. Or they would not have left. Come on man...

They did have a handle on it. Some would say they had an iron grip. Now players can get paid and leave, almost like the coaches can. I say almost, because there are stipulations..

Tell that to the United States Supreme Court, who ruled that players can transfer more than 1 times (and it was with the current members of the court that made the ruling).

Happy National Declare for The NFL Draft Day, for all those players who don’t reach the playoffs. Agents have their boards ready to go.
