The game is so broken.
UCF Transfer Portal Updates
- Thread starter muckdawg24
- Start date
To paraphrase Hardy, "Well, here's another nice kettle of fish NIL has pickled us in!” Boy do I not like what NIL and Transfer Portal have done to College Athletics.
If you want amateur college football like it was, coaches salaries are capped at well below $1 million, stadiums don't have NFL like amenities, no suites, no indoor practice facilities, only big games are nationally broadcast. The entire process has to be amateur, not just the athlete actually playing it. However, fans want professional sports level coaching staffs, facilities, stadiums, broadcasting, and the best of the best players.
Eventually there will be a split, kind of like FBS and FCS. Do you want to be a program that is professionally ran, or do you want to be closer to college football like it used to be?

Don't think College athletics should become the minor leagues for the pros. So since I am rapidly becoming older than dirt I think I like it the way it was before NIL and the present day portal. I am also not sure it is what's best for young players, of whom 90% will never see the pros.
The o-line makes or breaks you along with a 1/2 way good defense!
Stadiums w NFL like amenities? There are stadiums in the SEC and Big 10 that are **itholes
The focus including for UCF is on premium seats in expansions, they want higher ticket prices for premium guests as oppose to local community/kids. Everything is focused on generating the most revenue.
Jacob is a nice add, good developmental piece.
I read that the Henderson twins are coming back as well. Love D. Henderson at free safety. Not nearly as big of a fan of J. Henderson at corner, but let’s hope our new staff can coach them up. Glad they are back.
My buddy and I were talking this out the other day and he pretty much said, "it's all about gambling". Just another nail in this nation's coffin!
Hopefully Frost can keep our Hometown Heroes HOME!!!
Yeah. Hunter will forsake multi-year relationships, familial obligations, comfort level, and immediate playing time as an every down full time starter to "chase a bag."
Hate to be the fly in your ointment, but both programs produce a high number of draft picks.

@LoboCane was right. He was bag 💼 chasing. these Texas programs are loaded w Oil money, even non flagships like Texas Tech.
Texas Tech is the program that got Lee to go to the portal…he planned on staying at UCF. TT has a new billionaire booster, this won’t be the last whale they get.
Stop embarrassing yourself. So don’t post anymore?Yeah. Hunter will forsake multi-year relationships, familial obligations, comfort level, and immediate playing time as an every down full time starter to "chase a bag."

Dudes target school colors are all Black and Gold/yellow - weird.
Crazy thing is this guy would have been a great fit in our previous offense.....basically he has been playing the Wild Knight position for 2 years...has more rushing attempts (38) than passing attempts (35) this year, but played in every game.
Ryan Browne QB Purdue is setting up a visit. Played in 8 games this year, 530 yards passing. 3 years left.
Kind of fits the mold of bringing in a one year guy and a guy with several years of eligibility from the portal.

Three schools of note for Pribula are Missouri, Iowa and UCF,

That's a bummer Lee Hunter to Texas Tech. Hunter was my favorite player to watch this past year. "Do Your Job."
UCF visits Texas Tech next season. I guess I gotta voodoo curse him now.

Revisionist post much? You said what Texas wants Texas gets.
"Nobody has more money than Texas. Nobody. Lee Hunter will play for the team that gives him the bigger NIL deal. He should have left last year TBH. If Texas really wants him then he is going there."
Look dummy…I told you that he was looking for the bigger payday no matter who the team is. If Texas wanted him, they would outbid Texas Tech.
Now go back to posting about driving distances and similar stupidity. It’s 2024 soon to be 2025.

so what happens when the supporters of other schools say they don't want to "grow the wealth of their rival's benefactors."
