Gotta find a way to empty the portal a bit.

What the freak took them so long?
And why do they feel like now is the right time to remove it? We’re past the worst of it.
Saban made a call and said he wants to add some depth to the defenseWhat the freak took them so long?

I can get behind that logic, but this was needed 18 months ago, not right now, imoI think the Idea, was that if they announce something before the Transfer deadline, it would encourage more players to transfer/schools to tamper with players knowing they can sign more.
Every scholly is renewed annually. You can sign a monster class and simultaneously cut dead weight. This is huge for someone like Mario or Riley who need to overhaul a roster. You could hypothetically do it one year. All of a sudden we can sign 30+?This doesn't help much unless they increase the 85 scholarship limit temporarily as well....otherwise, this only benefits schools that capped out on incoming players, but lost a lot to the portal and are under 85 due to it.
I think we are willing and wanting of the blood sacrifice.So it seems that it helps a) the schools that lost a bunch of a transfers or b) the teams willing to sacrifice players for new blood (your Bamas and Georgias of the world)
Nope. This is huge news.Am I crazy or does it just feel like everything is falling into place for us right now
All of sudden we aren’t crunching numbers on loaded 23 and 24 WR classes… taking Emory Williams and Rashada isn’t a problem. Can rebuild the entire OL and DL in one cycle and still supplement other positions.Am I crazy or does it just feel like everything is falling into place for us right now
We are sitting at 85 already and still have room for ICs. Our problem is the opposite unless we send a bunch of kids packing.But 85 stays? Would be huge for Mario
We have a ton of kids we can send packing though. Our roster isn’t that good. This allows for a quicker rebuild. We aren’t talking dead weight now, we are talking okay to decent players that can be replaced by better players. The good news is that we don’t have to do it right now, we can after the season. See who develops and who doesn’t. For instance as I alluded to loaded 23 and 24 WR classes. The guys we have, now got a season to prove they belong.We are sitting at 85 already and still have room for ICs. Our problem is the opposite unless we send a bunch of kids packing.
Thumbs up their asses!What the freak took them so long?

It helps a ton to schools. Those you mentioned, us and SC. Finally it helps schools like ASU which just got gutted via the portal.Seems that this will really help schools like bama Georgia lsu that regularly lose a ton of underclassmen to the draft along with the graduating guys. They can just hit that 85 without issue
