With the top 4 pretty much set, unless some mass chaos. Lots of changes are starting to take shape.
Lot of portal announcements already out. I think you could build a good team with just portal guys.
Michigan’s beginning year starting QB Cade McNamara entered portal.
Auburn was set to hire Hugh Freeze, but getting lot of pushback on Freeze past. (Making an 8th grade girl change in front of him).
Texas A&M has fired their offensive coordinator. Darrell Dickey.
Wisconsin hired Luke Fickell.
Tulane coach went to GT.

I find the college coaching changes to be one of the most interesting aspects of the game.

These coaches make good money. The northwest coach makes over 5 million a year. I think they win 1 game.
Hiring Rhule saved Carolina like 30 million dollars.

I don't like the fact that players can play 4 games then sit out the rest of the year and transfer and maintain that year of eligibility. I also think there should be a 1 week period where portal transfers are allowed and then closed the rest of the year, and it shouldn't be until February.

I would also like to see that colleges could sign no more than 3 players out of the portal per year.

Big question is do OU & UT write checks and go to the SEC this fall?

WHen OU lost their coach to USC last year, how many players did he take with him? This gutted OU and consequently it will be that much tougher for them to bounce back. Student-athletes need to make a commitment and be expected to honor that commitment. Some of these kids commit one day, de-commit the next, and then re-commit the next day. Decisions need to have consequences.

Cade MacNamara makes sense. He won’t play next year at all and by then the next guy up might be better. Wonder where he lands?

The only problem I have is you should have to leave the conference. I can see him going to Georgia. Stetson is 25 on his 3rd senior game. Georgia was one of McNamara’s finalists a few years ago.

I have watched McNamara for years, I just don’t think he is going to be the answer for Georgia or any other top tier program.

Portal is gonna be wild. Every player is now on a 1 year contract. Portal window is December 5th. Right before bowl season. If those kids are in the portal they can’t play or practice in a bowl. With opt outs, getting enough players may be tough for some teams.

I don’t think A&M will have any more than anyone else. Better teams with depth will see the effects. There are some very good second string players on some teams. They wanna play.
Alabama had a tackle enter today. Damion George, he’s solid. Just has a freshman in front of him. Will be good for some team.
Portal is meant for immediate starters.

OU receiver Theo Wease in portal. He was a big time kid from Allen high school.
LJ Johnson RB. Texas A&M in portal.
Ish Harris. LB. Texas A&M in portal.
Elijah Jeudy. DE. Texas A&M in portal. Not a big contributor. From up North. May just go back

I just do not believe college players should be able to hold programs hostage while they choose to or choose not to enter the portal. I would think programs that are down will lose considerably more players than winning programs, but I could be wrong. Just seems that young people have too many privileges that are given to them, but not earned.
