State of the Roster: Where Northwestern stands a week into the transfer portal

Since it opened one week ago, 1,171 NCAA football players have entered the transfer portal.

Now more than ever, with record numbers of athletes in the portal and several NU departures for the NFL, it is imperative that the Wildcats make a splash. If not, Northwestern may be doomed to a just as bad, if not worse season in 2023 as this year’s 1-11 campaign.

While the new era of college football has been kind to some teams (ahem... USC), it hasn’t been great for the schools that don’t particularly have a lot of NIL money floating around.
