[QUOTE="roadkill, post: 977229, member: 1555"] The perennial CFP contenders may have enough 4-5 star depth where a handful of transfers out don't make a material difference in team strength. If they do bring in some guys from the portal, they can be very selective. So I don't think the portal hurts them, and may help. And Blueblood + NIL money means they will likely stay a blueblood. NIL is another variable, and it can benefit some schools at the expense of others who aren't able to play that game as well. The type of schools that the portal can hurt a good bit are ones with good talent but underperforming. Texas A$M is a good example. We've obviously benefitted from that on offense, and in my opinion, have realized a net gain for transfers on that side of the ball. And now that Jimbo is gone, we may benefit some more. This highlights another point - when you have an underperforming factory, their coaches tend to have a relatively short tenure, which can lead to a bunch of transfer opportunities for lower-tier schools. I think GT has an advantage over many of our peer schools in that Atlanta is a talent-rich area, and being able to offer a potential transfer an opportunity to come home is a plus. [/QUOTE]
