I agree that CFB is changing for the worst. Seeing our best WR bail for more money blows.

This is the way it'll be from here on out. AD must've given the team a heads up, as evident by the additions of Lovett & Thomas, so at least he let Kirby and the staff know and still played throughout the playoffs, unlike Gilbert.

But no one complains when we gain players, so the portal giveth and the portal taketh away

Again, this is the new norm now. Take it for what you will. If anyone in this era stays 3-4 years then that's worth DGD status alone, lol.

The portal just makes it easier for upper echelon schools to process "dead weight" out, without having to pull scholarships, which would be bad optics.

This is why the portal benefits the very schools it was designed to hurt.

Every so often, you will lose a player that you wish you could have kept, for whatever reason, but the benefits far outweigh the negatives for a school like UGA.
