The grass is not always greener on the other side. The NCAA released data from the first two years of the transfer portal, revealing that only 49% of college student-athletes enrolled at a new member school after entering the portal.
The percentages vary based on the sport and division, but they do not paint a pretty picture for college athletes seeking a better college athletics situation.
FBS football had more players enter the transfer portal than any other sport (2,358), but men’s basketball had 31% of its athletes enter the portal over the two-year period. The interactive dashboard allows you to examine a variety of data points in various sports across all divisions.
