Philo reported to enter portal by the VT rag

[bobongo]

Man I hope it’s not Philo entering the portal. That kid has a great opportunity at Ga Tech.

He does, but he may have a better short-term opportunity elsewhere. He stays, he may well play backup to Haynes King next year.
He goes, and there is almost certainly an immediate starting job in P-4 with his name on it. With just as much if not more NIL $$.

Sorry, wasn't supposed to say that out loud...

Watched sidelines interplay during telecast last Fri....AP was not in offense sideline huddle during timeouts...he was not sitting w HK during defensive possessions while coach "coached".....
Hope I am wrong.... I usually am.... but this didn't feel good..... Lots of big time teams looking for QB with millions of NIL $$$...can't imagine Philo is coming back to sit behind Haynes.... when Auburn (and 5 other P4 powers) has $3mm/ytear to spend on QB..... $500k from GT or $3mil at Auburn... if it was me, See ya boys

I noticed that body language too,

This would absolutely bite

So, we lose Pyron and Philo out the same portal window?

It seems that coaches are now forced to recruit every position every year because they can't count on this year's big get still being around next year.

And as fans, are we supposed to get invested in a player this season only to lose him for next? Like the one-and-dones in basketball?the process

How do you develop an individual player or team chemistry if you have to start over every year?

Sorry, but this sucks.

You can’t and some coaches are tiring of the process. They “didn’t sign up for that”.

He’s not as good as Haynes King today but he should be a 2 year starter if he stays. You’re right about the NIL money.

GT should replace Buzz with Chicken Little. It would be so much more appropriate for our fan base.

Every time I open the Football Forum, my heart sinks when I see Philo’s name associated with the Transfer Portal.
Never fails.
Can we push this thread back where it’s not right at the top of the list?
Dang-it, my reply will keep it near the top….

If this is a nothing burger and everyone quits making frivolous posts, this thread will slide away on its own.
