In the previous portal cycle 20% of FBS players tossed their names in the portal and sought new homes and new fortunes. That’s a fifth of college rosters. Now sure, Colorado dumped 71 names in as the new coach sought to build himself a merch store, I mean new team; but that is crazy to think about. And while this year’s transfer/recruiting cycle is just getting started, its already seen 1500 players raise their hands as seeking new opportunities. What is striking is who is entering the portal. Not just depth chart players hoping to find the field at a new school.
