Pate says he’s aware of dozens of players who regret hitting the portal

Who could have predicted that agents work for themselves?

While I’m sure a lot of these players are definitely getting taken advantage of, at the same time it’s hard to really for bad for them. It’s a valuable life lesson that the grass ain’t always greener.

That's the risk you take by going into the portal. It's good to have confidence in yourself and your abilities, but don't be delusional about it.

I wonder how many players entered the portal because of advice their "representation" gave them. And of those, how many are without a roster spot.

Raoila has to be one of them. No way did he think he would be on the bench as a junior

Reminds me of how agents tell about 100 players every year they are guaranteed first round picks, and there are 32 spots.

JUCOs need 3-star players

Need a licensing system like the nfl
