2024-25 Portal

Not sure what schools have seen in this kid as he can't throw the ball worth a beans. He's basically a running QB and that's all.

 
I wonder if he ever played with our former recruit Robert Washington? He was committed to several schools too it if I remember correctly. Who knows how many more if he had played during the portal era.
 
Oh?

yes please.gif
 
A solid percentage of Portal kids end up signing with a coach that they know. Others end up signing with teams close to home and of course some just follow the money. I think that we are going to do well long term with kids that we recruited out of HS and didnt land and or kids that want to come back east
 
Yes please.
Would make a lot of sense for Cuse. I have to be honest, its mildly alarming that a majority of the players we are aligned with aren't even making it to the visit. They have other visits planned prior and commit before even making it to the Hill. I don't believe that to be an NIL issue although some people I spoke with seem to think so. I'm not sure what the correct answer is aside from getting them in first. Hopefully that streak breaks and breaks soon!

I think a lot of them are basically done before the visits. They’re basically confirmatory. Not all but a lot of the guys know where they’re going when they enter the portal. We will kick the tires on everyone and hope we can win some but if the battle is just over money, we’re never winning.

I know we really want the NY OT from Central CT but that’s a hard battle to win. Hopefully he decides soon.

His recruitment went quiet since his visits to FSU and UF. I think it’s a good sign that he visited cuse first and didn’t commit at either stop. I’d guess our chances are good. Also there’s an apparent mutual interest between Wafle and Cuse. The visit for Sascha Garcia is big tomorrow and a couple other names worth monitoring are Bass (lb) from Pitt and the LB from bama who entered yesterday

if money weren’t an issue he would have committed to us already. I think positive news from Kyle helps us out there.
 
I count 102/103 scholarship players. If nothing changes we have no more than 3 open spots.

The numbers always work themselves out.

Always.

That said - we are seemingly very particular and selective re: the portal at the moment.
Which is fine.

After Spring practices are over, there will be more options in the portal,
in both directions.

If we had more players than roster spots, the numbers would have to work themselves out and they always do. Right now we’re not bringing anyone else in because there’s no room. The numbers are already worked out.

We have two maybe three spots open. More spots will open IF other guys leave after spring but that’s not guaranteed.

68 of the 102/103 are sophomores or freshman.

Fran was very clear about the portal this year and nobody wanted to listen.
