Message: [QUOTE="UConnJim, post: 4813171, member: 1559"] Yup. I think the best football schools are still targeting high school players and use the portal for a few spots where there is a need. Then they use the outbound portal to help manage the roster. Sustained LT success will come from recruiting and developing high school athletes and not the portal, except for QBs. Number of athletes the 4 teams in the CFP took from the portal and from high school last year: Alabama. 5 portal, 28 HS. (Lost 21 to portal) Texas. 5 portal, 25 HS. (Lost 20 to portal) Michigan 9 portal, 25 HS. (Lost 14 to portal) Washington 10 portal, 21 HS (Lost 21 to portal) [/QUOTE]
