The NCAA Transfer Portal is a story of twists and turns for the Texas football program, a lot of times for the worse. But the transfer portal is also a necessary evil for a lot of college football and basketball programs around the country. It gives the players the freedom to make the decisions they feel necessary to facilitate success in their college careers. To a root, there’s nothing wrong with that.
But it does amount to some players finding more success elsewhere, and some cutting their opportunities short to learn in a program that is the right fit and could give them an NFL future.
