To those who dislike how CLM handled it...how would you have handled it?...just asking
For starters I would have targeted 2 to 3 players that might be greyshirt candidates and let them know that if everyone is cleared, that x amount of people will need to be greyshirted. Second, I would have chosen one of the players that had trouble qualifying to be greyshirted. Would i rather have Gore than Porter? yes. But as far as I'm concerned you don't punish the kid that had everything in order from the get go and who has been on campus working. Building a program is a long game and I'd rather have a foundation of integrity. After all half the job is convincing parents that you are going to take care of their sons.

Can you even imagine the outcry if Miles had forced Ego or someone of his caliber to greyshirt?
"It's never about the first semester, it's always about the body of work. I'm committed to these guys for a career, not just a semester. Is it optimal? Absolutely not. Is it the thing I would have loved to have done? No, absolutely not."
Sound familiar? It does to me. Yes it stinks for Porter.. but if he's patient it will all just vanish. He needs to look at the big picture.
