The Portal is out of control

@dylans said in The Portal is out of control:
Oooh maybe some idiot judge will determine they can transfer at any time with no need to sit out. - we could snag some Duke players after they get bounced in the dance to fill out our bench. Smdh
Not going to happen for quite awhile, if ever. Just the logistics are impossible to make work, legal issues aside

How many KU players went into the portal?
-
@mayjay Lance Leipold - “What’s a portal?”

I think so far we have had three go. -but will probably be more, talk of possibly Booker , maybe , maybe Robinson --not many. Some talk of Bryant - - Then very rea chance we lose Devin, not to portal but NFL draft – 50/50 chance would love to have him back , but if the Money is there - -go to run with it while you an. Average NFL running back life is like 3- 4 years

We lost gage keys to auburn. Who else though?

We lost Taneka Scott , can’t remember the other
-
@benshawks08 Will Huggins, Tanaka Scott, and Reece Thomas
-
Thanks, everyone. KU has been pretty lucky so far.
-
Interesting stat just came out today on how important the NIL values are. Arch Manning, the Texas longhorns 3rd string QB roped in over 3 million dollars this season. Brock Purdy the QB for the 49ers will make 870k this season and are Super Bowl favorites right now.
-
@kjayhawks It’s all in the name. “Mr. Irrelevant” versus “Manning” isn’t likely to command as much respect or as many Benjamins.
-
NCAA is allowing multi-transfer athletes who transfer by the end of this year to play immediately next fall.
-
Former KU QB Ethan Vasko won MVP of the Hawaii Bowl for Coastal Carolina.
-
Armja Reed-Adam has entered the portal started at both guard and tackle and this season for us
-
Bummer. I kinda get it. He wasn’t going to start next year in all likelihood.
-
@FarmerJayhawk Depth is gonna become a major issue in college football. Within the next few season lots of teams will have trouble going two deep. Which very important on the defensive line and linebacker spot.

Ford at guard and portal for a center?
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich yessir. Center is really the only offensive priority in the portal
-
One player not going anywhere is Cobee Bryant. Just announced about 20 minutes ago he’s returning for his senior season.
-
Really happy about Cobee coming back.
I see that KJ Jefferson is transferring to UCF too.
-
A request: Would it be possible please for anyone posting about someone transferring (other than a KU player) to just add what school they are leaving? It saves having to do search after search by those of us not familiar with dozens and dozens of other schools’ rosters!
Thank you very much!
-
KJ Jefferson is the quarterback for Arkansas. KU played him in last year’s bowl.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich Thx, I looked him up. (Unfortunately I was travelling during the bowl game so I never watched it. Might have been the only one here who didn’t recognize the name!)
I wonder how many players will transfer to UCF now that they are in the B12. Kids like theme parks.
-
I’ve got it all figured out.
From now on, transfers will only be sanctioned in the athlete’s freshman and sophomore years. They can still transfer after that, but no NIL.
Problem solved. You’re welcome
-
Lawrence Arnold is sticking around. He had some big schools try to pry him away.
-
@FarmerJayhawk he’s my favorite! Him and Bean seem to have a special connection! I think Wilson will join that group.

That’s good news , now we got to do something about our depth on the O-Line. , Spence leaving O-Line kind thin. - -Have you heard anything on Skinner or Grimm ?
-
@jayballer67 we’re looking for a starting center and someone who can play tackle.
Grimm and Skinner are staying

- -Well good to hear about Grimm and Skinner. as far as tackle wouldn’t it be that kid tht played in the Bowl game I think - -huge kid I think like 6’7-- dm what was his nae ? – i dunno, thANKS THOUGH BUDDY

Not necessarily a starter (we can’t afford one tbh) but an experienced backup that can provide depth in case of injury. As of now we’re really thin along the OL and an injury would be catastrophic.

Alabama’s starting center just hit the portal, let’s go get him.
-
DL is another position to add depth.
-
@kjayhawks we’re gonna try
-
Didn’t Alabama’s center hike the ball very poorly twice their playoff game? Was this out of character? Need clean exchanges.
-
@dylans No. This was an ongoing issue all year. He had way more than two bad ones against Michigan.
-
Boy Howdy–Afte their game the other night , didn’t take long for the flood gates to open for Alabama. I’m so happy , I can’t stand Saban --Alabama in the period of FIFTHTEEN minutes had nine players enter the portal. - -A LOT of talent leaving Saban.
5 * - – WR , Ja’ Corey Brooks ( Going to Louisville ) - - 4 * - – DL Anquin Barnes ( Going to Colorado ) - 4 * - -DL - Isaiah Hastings - – 4 * - QB - -Ele Halstein - -4 *- -WR -Malik Benson
4 * - -WR - Shazz Preston - -4 * - -OL - -Terrence Fergerson - ( why does that name sound familiar ? --4 * DL - -Markell Goodwin - -4 * - -DB Earl Kettle – -& - -4 * - -DB - -Kristan Storey
Sure would be nice if somehow we could snatch a couple of these guys. Say like maybe , - Goodman & Fergerson - -Sure could use some hogs on both sides of the line – Especially offense

Former KSU QB Will Howard announced he is transferring to Ohio St. for his final season.

What the hell happened to Lincoln Riley ?
-
How funny would it be if Howard went there and won a NC. KSU fans think they are going to be all world next season
-
@kjayhawks closest to a natty they’ll ever get. Hang a banner!
-
I expect things to now be suuuuper slow until spring. We’re pretty tapped out $ wise
-
Kansas lands North Dakota St defensive lineman Javier Derritt. One year to play. Much needed.
-
@FarmerJayhawk We gonna be top 12 next year shocking the world and in the playoff……mark it down we are going undefeated and beating ksu finally. Schedule is fairly easy and Leipold is on a mission

Another OL! Darrell Simmons from ISU

We got anothr lineman ? - -that’s great we need the big boys
-
Michigan has a guy who’s free to leave now because of Harbaugh leaving and he has a great combo name of Mason Graham. All that was great about two of our heros rolled into one football player!
