In today's era of college football, utilizing the transfer portal effectively is a must.

Over the past couple of seasons it has become evident that just because a team is returning a high percentage of its players doesn't necessarily mean anything in the long run. Sure, having returning veterans and key players on your team doesn't hurt, but the use of the transfer portal is becoming the new norm in college football.
