54.7% of the freshmen, sophomores, and juniors who entered the transfer portal didn't have a new school as of six days ago. Per Jon Rothstein

No one answer. The portal is good for some and bad for others. But IMHO it is necessary to help players move on to other programs to get away from a bad decision to go where ever they went....for any number of reasons(the school, the coach, fellow players, more playing time, etc .). The coaches were also jumping to another school for way more money, while students were stuck at a school they dreaded to be. The portal was necessary for the players.

with an almost 60% rate of players not having transferred the portal doesn't look like a safe bet. Sure getting away from a bad situation is important but winding up with no school scholarship could be the worst outcome for a large number of players
