After a December Early Signing Period that saw the bulk of FIU’s 20 signees coming from the high school ranks, it’s no surprise that the Panthers latest additions have come via the transfer portal.
In fact, Mike MacIntyre stated as much during his media availability following ESD.
“We’ll have an opportunity to look at the portal and the way we do the portal is we search kids from the state of Florida, South Florida, Tampa, Orlando and Miami first and then work our way up, because we want the kids to have a connection to here and want to be here,” said MacIntyre.
