2022-23 Portal Cup

The college transfer “rules” (really there aren’t any) are far looser than US professional sports or even the former paragon of free agency/highest bidder, the English Premier League. In those instances players at least have to abide by their contracts, and can’t walk during the season.
If players feel entitled to explore new opportunities, why shouldn’t programs be able to “waive” underperformers? Maybe that’s already happening in effect.
Maybe players need to be under contract just like coaches.
It's known as "benching". Coaches have been letting players know they lack a future with the team for a very long time and they have transferred. The difference now is that everyone knows about it because of the Portal and they can play immediately with the end of the sit-out rule. The latter is the real reason why there are so many transfers. If people still had to sit for a year, I doubt we'd have 5% of the number of transfers that we have now.

devils advocate.

what do I get in return for signing the contract?

if your school makes me sign that contract, I’ll go to another school that doesn’t.

You get the scholarship and NIL. I’m looking more at the players like Maye and Addison (Pitt to USC), and players who have a good year at say SU or Wake or Vanderbilt and then offer themselves to the highest bidder.
 
3-3-5 defense in the Big 10?

Good luck with that.

Wisconsin is going air raid now with their new OC, so maybe the league finally got the -in hint that outside of OSU and UM, no one wants to see game end 13-10.

right.

what makes USC have the same contract as Pitt?
 
Do we pick up linemen in the portal?
There are a couple 300-lb coming out
 
DB's have 4 spots and OL 5 and yet they almost double them...interesting.
