Hmmm.

Auburn
Broome - transferred from Morehead St a couple years ago
Kelly - in from Auburn this year
Baker - from SDSU couple years ago
Jones - FIU transfer

4/5 starters are transfers

Bama - Nelson, Sears, Youngblood and Omari all transfers 4/5
Iowa St - Gilbert from UNLV
Michigan - 3 core starters all transfers
Kentucky - entire starting lineup transfers
Houston - PG transfer Uzan just in from OU
Florida's 2G is a top transfer

There are transfers littered across every one of the top teams this year, so yeah you definitely win in the portal. What Hurley hasn't done much is push many of his home grown guys out to upgrade in the portal.  We shall see what he does this year as nailing portal picks and proven players elsewhere seems a strong recipe for success. Then you got guys like Shaka & Painter who do very little of it and win, but feel like they never have teams with the requisite talent to win it all (Edey being the outlier).
