Transfer Portal Tracker


I hated seeing Abdul leave. Me, my daughter and granddaughter sat behind his parents at the spring game his first year at GT. He looked good in the spring game, and they seemed very excited he was here. I thought he was somewhat under-utilized. He always seemed to make plays when the ball came his way, and he always seemed to be a great downfield blocker. I wish him well.
 
Idk where to put this...
From E+ :

Predicting starting QBs for every Power 4 college football team in 2025

2025 starter: Haynes King, redshirt senior


Why he'll start: King will enter his third season as Georgia Tech's starter after arriving with starting experience from Texas A&M. He has battled injuries for much of his career but has been dynamic when healthy, rushing for 21 touchdowns and passing for 41 with the Yellow Jackets. He notably decreased his interceptions total from 16 in 2023 to just two this past season, while showing much greater accuracy with 72.9% completions. If Georgia Tech can hang on to coordinator Buster Faulkner, it will enter 2025 with one of the ACC's most stable situations on offense.

Competition: Aaron Philo emerged as the backup to King this past season as a true freshman, and will do so again in 2025. He saw extensive action in a 30-29 win against NC State, passing for 265 yards and adding 57 rushing yards and a touchdown.

He was a very good blocker.
Of course, this year, with King's limitations throwing the ball, his chances of getting receptions behind Rutherford and Singleton were going to be scarce.
Good luck to him at his next stop.
 
This is going to stir the waters
This is strange. From the headline I was asking why wouldn't Wisconsin just put him in the portal...way to screw everyone Wisconsin.

After reading the article it appears the kid signed a two year contract with Wisconsin, under the new School paying system, and then immediately tried to bail to Miami.

TLDR: Kid signed his NIL rights to Wisconsin for 2 years and then tried to break that contract and go to Miami.

I called this one too. It’s why I think it’s ridiculous to have a “portal window” that gives players a justification for quitting on their teams before the bowls. There is nothing “unfair” about the portal not being timed to spring semester enrollment. Nothing prevents any student from enrolling in any school they want other than acceptance by that school.

Schools are going to start fighting back on the team-hopping with these NIL contracts. It'll be "you want to go year-to-year on your contract, we'll give you $100K this year. Sign for 2 years and we'll give you $250K." Player tries to hop in the middle - court injunction preventing them from playing at the new school. Nothing illegal here - standard employment contract law. Schools can decide to add in clauses that state the term includes bowl games, so if you sit out, you don't get paid.

The ones who're really making bank right now are agents negotiating all this junk.
