Kelly is building a stable foundation with HS recruits with a transfer here and there when needed. He’s not building 1 year year flash in the pan rental teams like what Kiffin is doing next year. Saban and Kirby were never heavy portal teams because their programs are so stable they don’t need to be. That’s what Kelly is doing here.
Kiffin doesn’t give a damn about ole miss long term. He can bounce any off-season he pleases and if he wins 8 games a year at ole miss he can stay there 40 years. They are overpaying kids based on the market and they know it but they don’t care.
Kelly refuses to do that. It is what it is.

I think it is more of the fact OM knows they can't consistently compete in HS recruiting with programs like Georgia, Texas, LSU, Alabama, Ohio St., etc, etc. So they are using "free agency" to build their teams. It's not unlike big market MLB teams (like the Dodgers). They choose to build rosters with high priced FAs rather than primarily through their farm system. LSU, Georgia, Alabama, build through their "farm systems".
Frankly, it's probably a smart move for OM. Why fight tooth and nail to match Georgia in HS recruiting when you know you probably can't. Get the guys you can and go find the top FAs to fill in the rest. But for a QB injury, that strategy would have had FSU in the playoffs this season.

This is so important and something people overlook when the shiny object in the portal gets flashed in front of their faces. Portal guys should be fill-in's, not the building blocks of your team.

But is that smart in this day and age? Most of them will end up transferring when they aren’t all American as a freshman
