[QUOTE="Root4GT, post: 1004393, member: 5618"] That's a bit harsh in my opinion. Players move for lots of reasons. Most of the movement is up from mid majors or lower to P6 teams by very good or from P6 teams down as for players can't get on the court for at the P6 level. There are players who simply move for the money but they are vastly in the minority in my view. Now many of the lower program guys moving up will use money as one of the main criteria in selecting a team. It's hard but not impossible to build a team from scratch. Utah State did it this year. Zero returning minutes and they make the NCAAT. For most teams there needs to be a solid core of good players and adding one or two pieces from the Portal can make a huge difference. In our conference see UNC. They had a good returning core in Davis and Bacott and added two very good experienced players in Ryan and Ingram. Wake always add a player who become 1st team all ACC yet they still don't make the NCAAT even though they are a pretty good team. HS recruting is still crucial to long term success, Teams need to be good at recruting HS players every year and just fill in a hole or two with high level transfers. As always money matters. That has always been the case in college basketball. It is simply in the open now. [/QUOTE]
