Message: [QUOTE="kingtidge, post: 4245293, member: 994"] With 1300 players in the portal now, one would think that recruiting the portal effectively is not only necessary, but the programs that do it successfully will directly translate that recruiting advantage to more success on the court. Others have argued that the "portal" is no different than recruiting transfers prior to the portal, and it's just a fancy moniker and tracking database for what has always gone on with program to program transfers. It's a typical strawman argument. The gamechanger with the portal now is the sheer volume of players available. 1300 transfer players all available at once in the portal requires an active and sustained recruiting strategy. If our default approach is as previously confirmed: That is a terribly limiting strategy and can be summed up in one word - LAZY. It's also negligent. [/QUOTE]
