Transfer Portal Tops 1000 and Counting

[huskyd]

At this time of year, Jews celebrate the Passover, the mass Exodus of the nation from Egypt. The traditional meal (seder) held every year retells the story of that trip from bondage to freedom in the Land of Israel. Some have complained that the story (megillah) is always the same and is therefore anticlimactic.
With the advent of the Portal in basketball, another mass exodus is taking place at just the season it should. Perhaps the Portal experience could be incorporated into the Hagadah (the order--seder--of the meal). It would freshen the story at a time where especially the young are growing restive of the old ways. Just saying.

A lot of the players entering the portal have previously transferred from a four-year school, meaning by rule they will have to sit out a year when they transfer again. I can't help but wonder do they just want to move on so badly that they're willing to sit a year to do it, or are they being led to believe they can find a way to get a waiver from the NCAA. If the NCAA doesn't enforce the one-time exception rule that allows immediate eligibility at a new four-year school, that is when the true chaos could occur. It seems like it is already teetering on the edge.

I don’t believe that graduate transfers have to sit out a year, even if they have already transferred.
