Written by Etan Thomas, Syracuse MBB & alum, with some interesting perspective and thoughts about the portal.  For instance, maybe you only get one transfer, unless it's your coach leaving, then that doesn't count.

"Yeah, so I just want to make that point clear. But in the past, no matter how bad the situation was for you, from a player’s perspective, you were almost forced to deal with it because [the] repercussion or punishment for transferring would be that you had to sit out an entire year and lose that year of eligibility. And that is a lot; you had to really be unhappy in your situation to give up an entire year. Now, it’s different. Players now have the flexibility to leave if the situation is not good for them and I’m all for that, in theory."
