It’s ok to supplement through the portal but I don’t agree that you build your team through it for sustained success. The portal classes have gotten smaller every year. They brought in 12 guys this cycle and 2 were kickers. I’m expecting possibly even smaller next year

Indiana won because of the portal. Ole Miss almost played on the title game because of the portal. We can stretch the meaning of supplement but we aggressively supplemented our roster to nearly win the chip. This year we would suck but the team will be one of the best because of the portal. I agree with the statement that it would be best to build through the HS ranks, it’s just we haven’t been able to build a complete team that way yet.

We are literally building it that way now just look at the roster. The more hs talent they bring in the less you are going to see them use the portal. The teams that are consistently in the running don’t build through the portal like uga and osu

Nah, I’m not saying I expected it, just calling on the hyperbole that happens across this site and our tweeting overlords that stand 5’5

As far as said 5'5" tweeting overlords that may or may not have an abuse problem with a particular illicit substance that is internationally known to be in abundance in this region, everyone has a part to play, fam.

Crootin' is big business, brother, and BUSINESS IS GOOD!!! The DSniffs, Wiltfongs, Fawcetts, etc. of the world are here to drum up the excitement, drama, suspense, panic, hubris, allat ****. There's sort of a WWE element to it that they bring.

It's on the fan to use ration and logic, or be like, "IT'S STILL REAL TO ME, DAMMIT!!!"...

Going back to some earlier comments, I think it’s very reasonable to wonder whether UM will ever sign a 5star or borderline 5star RB under Mario. Not because we don’t use RB’s correctly, and not because we don’t put RB’s in the NFL (Fletcher is going to start an annual run for UM in next year’s draft).

But rather because Mario does not put the same NIL value on RB’s as other programs. NIL allocation will vary from team to team. Just as salary cap allocation varies in the NFL. There are many, many NFL teams that will not draft an RB in the 1st round because they don’t believe an RB should take up as much of the salary cap as a 1st round RB would demand.

So expect us to do well at Oline and Dline and secondary.
We don’t seem to allocate as much on RB’s and LB’s (I’m not expecting Henderson for this reason). It’s a financial philosophy, right or wrong.
QB is interesting and we will see how that plays out because before Abrams, we seemed content to go to the portal to pay QB’s.

also, some programs promise kids starting jobs too. Cooper was promised to start at UT. some kids care about the PT more than anything.

That is the plan and has always been the plan, my point is that we are going into year 5 and it has not worked thus far. It’s okay though, whatever gets it done.
