Message: [QUOTE="UConnJim, post: 5136054, member: 1559"] What's interesting is not all schools are focused on the portal. I heard the TCU coach yesterday said they are focused on HS kids and development with only a couple transfers sprinkled in. And, if you look at the top 10 recruiting classes on 247, the average class size is ~25. Syracuse is bringing in 34 kids, so they clearly won't be relying heavily on the portal this year compared to last year. I think the way things are going to work is that for a school like UConn, we can use the portal to attract P4 kids who are not starting or G5/FCS kids that find what UConn offers attractive. And, there are plenty of top 30 QBs who will not start at their current school so you can find them like Evers and Roberson. And I like how UConn is bringing in many portal kids with multiple years of eligibility so you don't have massive turnover every year. I believe that the portal on a net/net basis is a positive for UConn. This year it certainly was. [/QUOTE]
