We will watch because we love college football. And at the end of the day when the purple and gold line up fans are going to be fans. The portal is not all bad. It gives you a way to quickly fix problems versus multi-year rebuilds. But the complete transiency of players from year to year can take a little bit of the soul out of the game

The portal is a death sentence. If a coach cannot manage a roster he cannot build a program. NIL all you want, that’s manageable, when players are calling meetings with the coaches instead of the other way around you are in a death spiral. Even the NFL has set rosters and contracts. The portal is open free agency every season even within a season with no recourse.

College football is broken. The inmates are running the asylum now.

You don’t need it explained… a bunch of young thugs chasing money and have no loyalty to the program other than dollars.

I believe is describing college football as a prison and the inmates are running it. Nothing racist like you are trying to make light of. Geezzzz

The portal is not just a mechanism where talent can freely migrate to its more appropriate school, but also a dream machine that intoxicates the ego to places of greatness. But sadly, not all dreams come true.

“His agency”. The definition of why college football is now a circus.

There are no inmates and no asylum. You have innocent kids being puppets for agents and family members.

These “innocent kids” are professional athletes. It’s as simple as that. More than ever, they are open to scrutiny especially since it is boosters (literally thousands of fans) paying their salary.

He looks like a bum one play, then a future superstar the next. Hate lose a Louisiana kid with lots of potential, but if he leaves… he leaves.
