We got mollywopped by a team last year that loaded up on the portal and made one of the bigger single season turnarounds youll see...Michigan State.
We've used the portal and are most likely the poster child around CFB re: the portal, but some would say (and by some, I mean me) we should have hammered the portal even harder during the Manny years, unfortunately, we did not have the resources to really mine it to the level we needed to. Mario shows up, hires and puts together an entire department to manage portal transfers and so far, we're hammering the portal. Makes sense.
