I have a friend who is an assistant coach at a small college. He says tampering is crazy. He has told me that his good players get phone calls all year to see if they are interested in jumping in the portal. These are cold calls and come in waves. Big schools go after players and keep calling when kids don’t commit. He says he has to recruit all year. Recruit high school players and recruit his players to stay.

Yea, it’s a constant process. Theres guys getting contacted mid season. That’s why when they jump in, they already know where they are going and are committing a day later. It’s a ****show right now.

It goes on at the HS level. Kids are bouncing from school to school here. The kid that works for me when schools out has gotten multiple calls from HS coaches trying to get him to transfer. He’s about to transfer a third time. They’re also getting paid by the game. It’s unreal out here in these skreets lol.

How does it work at the HS level for public schools? Isn’t it harder to transfer than in private school? Or are you referring to private schools?

They missed their chance they should have gotten the IRS involved when Bama was passing out bags of cash. Don't know why everyone was scared to call them out back then but now when it's legal to pay guys you really have no gripe.

Public . He told me kids can transfer during the season and sit only one game. I don’t know how legit that is but I couldn’t get over it. That would be insanity. Him and his brothers bounce around like it’s nothing. His brother left a school at the end of the year and played spring at new school then transferred back to the original school when school started in fall. Transferring is like running to the gas station now lol.

I think it’s because everyone was doing it.. they just were doing it on a whole other scale.

Probably so. It's just amazing the most money sucking entity in this country didn't get their hands on that money when I'm sure they knew it was happening.

Times have definitely changed since I was in high school. Transferring is nowhere near as difficult as it once was. Last year Jared Smith was a 5 star DE playing for Spain Park in Alabama. He transferred to Thompson late in the season and would have actually been able to suit up for Thompson during their playoff run but decided not to. In the state of Alabama, if you meet all transfer eligibility requirements, you only have to "sit" for two days, which means you could possibly play for one school on Friday night and then suit up for another a week later.

How does it work? A player can enroll anyplace simply by using someone else’s address who lives in that particular district until they get caught not living there.
 
"We know who you are!" OK, so what are you going to do about it tough guy? Well, I may write a very strongly worded letter to the file or an anonymous OpEd to the NYT's expressing my secret opinion.

This has to be one of the weakest moves ever, meanwhile, across campus UConn men's basketball wins another title and can pick whoever they want out of the portal if they so choose.
