Considering those two guys equal a national championship and two Heismans, I don’t think the portal has worked out better for any program in CFB.

Don’t act like Greg Brooks wasn’t a stud until his medical issues.

Burrow was technically before the portal began


The portal is just a database of who is seeking to transfer. Transfers were always a thing, you just had to sit a year. Sometimes kids chose to or were directed to go to a JC to get some game experience at a little higher level than HS.

ETA: obviously that did not apply to grad transfers or if your program shutdown.

LOL. 2022? Ring a bell? SEC West champs. Portal practically built the defense. Where do you people come from?

Other than the two greatest players of the past 60 years, what has the portal given us?

Oh, so OTHER than two Heisman Trophy winners and one of the greatest seasons in the history of college football.

I dunno, I’m leaning towards it working out pretty well for us.

The hit and miss rate at LSU for transfers is the same as any other place.



The hit rate for LSU almost certainly BETTER than just about any other place. It gave us 2 heismans, an SEC title and 2 SEC west titles in 4 years.
