Somethings gonna have to be done about xfer portal. Even FBS playoff teams are losing players.

Theres only 3 things that need to be addressed

1. Timing of Portal entries (seems it should be after season ends)
2. Amt of NIL contracts. Some of them are crazy.
3. Lack of commitment or contracts. Even the pros have contracts.

Other thoughts?

I'm sure the transfer portal window is to accommodate kids moving schools before the spring semester.
God forbid these "student Athletes" miss any classroom time.

Decided to do the visual Starters / 2-Deep losses 'thing' for Furman, as FUBeAR did for Mercer, WCU, and Chatt...would have added it to the prior post, but the tyrannical Stumpy won't allow FUBeAR to post more than 3 links per post.

CAVEAT: These may/may not be accurate. Feel free to correct and feel free to add other Teams.

FUBeAR would imagine with a Coaching change and a highly ‘transient’ 2024 Team, ETSU will also have heavy losses. Also Samford, with 2 highly ‘transient’ Teams in ‘23 & ‘24 may be similarly situated.


Furman

Yellow - listed as Sr. or in Portal
Gray - listed as R-Sr, but has another year (Covid) and believe he plans to use it playing for the Paladins


Offense losses - 4 starters / 5 on 2-Deep
Defense losses - 4 starters / 4 on 2-Deep
Total O&D losses - 8 starters / 9 on 2-Deep

Thanks for these listings FUBeAR !!!. Seriously. Thanks


And whomever was glad Wofford retained two good players (despite finishing 7th). BOO TO THAT. Pulley and Coombs. They beat us. Again. It’s better for us that they lose the two guys than retain them. And right now I don’t feel good about getting a W on Wofford next year. Beat citadel. Beat Wofford.
