I mean 5 in the portal for college hoops is probably balls on average
I guess I was speaking more globally regarding how the current college athletics transfer system is set up.

I'm very pro-portal overall and think players should be able to have power and autonomy about where they play, but there needs to be a way for some legitimate guard rails to be inserted into this process. I thought the portaling in CFB was bad, but it's nothing compared to CBB in my opinion because the roster sizes are so much smaller. Losing 6 scholarship basketball players to the portal is the equivalent of losing like 40 scholarship football players.

Why worry about how many players on in the portal for CBB?
This is the way

This was posted by Washut about an hour ago in response to someone asking for target names:

"It’s pretty clear the others Hoiberg is visitare:

Connor Hickman, Bradley
Pharrel Payne, Minnesota
Joshua Ola-Joseph, Minnesota
Dain Dainja

I don’t expect any additions until after the dead period (April 4-11), but things can obviously change very quickly in portal recruiting."

Seems like he’s going for the a big athletic wings to take over all positions, can’t blame him after they kicked our ass all season

1000% asking 16-18 years to make a decision that has so much impact on their future should have some forgiveness but allowing kids to just always jump ship year after year is getting a bit ridiculous. I understand when they have coaching changes or when things don’t pan out the first go around but have kids in school for 7 years at 5 different schools has to change.
