Matthew Baldwin's entry into the transfer portal isn't ideal. Just in case that needed to be clarified for anyone; he's a talented prospect who will likely go on to do some pretty kickass things for whichever team he ends up with.
But welcome to the Thunderdome, suckers! In a world where players can transfer all willy-nilly, this is what you're going to get at the Ohio States (and Alabamas and Oklahomas and Auburns and Clemsons) of the world for the foreseeable future. Is it ideal for coaches? Probably not! Does it fairly benefit players? That's debatable! Are we going to lose our minds dealing with its implications?
