The transfer portal and opportunities via name, image and likeness deals have enabled the gobs of money generated by college football to be more easily (and legally) available to players than ever before. That’s led to unprecedented player movement this offseason, with star players changing schools seemingly every day.
For standout Boston College wide receiver Zay Flowers, though, the money and opportunities elsewhere weren’t enough to pry him from home.
Flowers, a two-time All-ACC selection, reportedly received six-figure offers to change schools this offseason via intermediaries—with one offer as high as $600,000. But the soon-to-be senior, who never even entered the transfer portal, turned them all down, according to ESPN’s Pete Thamel.
