Is there more to this?

Seems like another year of a lot hitting the portal all of the sudden. Yes I know it is the way of the new NCAA however, could there be more to it? Like maybe issues inside the locker room or something??

No, when Indiana, Vanderbilt, and Virginia all have historical, best in program history, seasons, all in the same season, it’s widespread.

Sounds like coaches quitting on players and players quitting on coaches.
Makes it hard for the ‘he quit on the team’ crowd to figure who to be mad at.

Heard and Warren has to be a little surprising.

Actually, it was either Hubbs or Austin who recently said it wouldn’t surprise him if Heard entered portal or NFL. Heard would have switch to other side of line since Sanders will return to left tackle on 2026.

I’m not familiar w/ their plans w/ Warren but it seems we aren’t developing as many of our younger players as we should.

And all of Volnation stating said players are being recruited over.

Gotta like the pumpers.

None of them were going to start next year except Heard if he moved to RT. They are all leaving to try and be starters somewhere else. That's all there is to it, it's not a coaching or cultural problem. The same as last year, other than Thomas and Nico none of those who left last year would have started this year.

You Fulmer haters are just lucky he wasn’t given a sabbatical. Had he been given one, you wouldn’t have reason to hate.

It’s not like he suddenly forgot how to coach.

Wyoming will always be enough reason to hate. He's gone and ain't ever coming back. I knew he lost it and needed to be gone at the bowl game against Wisconsin.

there will be more portals.

Almost 100% of our players (true for most programs) have been recruited this fall by other teams. So it would not be a shock for any player to hit the portal. Many have new deals but even that is not a lock they don't go elsewhere.

It’s just end of year evaluations freeing up scholarships and being honest.None will be missed and probably not a popular opinion but Boo didn’t do squat here,showed flashes against the ETSU’s of the world but scared to return on good teams.We need more Cedrick Wilson’s and less Boo’s.Ced wouldn’t call fair catch if he was gonna get blasted and could fall forward for 2 yards.

I dont really pay attention to other teams roster decisions. Does Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State, etc.. go through this much player turnover?

Heard’s plan 2 years ago was he’d be going pro this draft. Evidently the grade isn’t that high for him this year. Tennessee had already recruited to replace him per his plan. He was offered RT but he’d only accept if he got ridiculous money.
