I think we’re starting to see a trend in the portal for Freeze
First year we needed bodies and he packed the class full of guys from anywhere.
This time around the roster is less depleted so Freeze went all in on high caliber HS guys and supplemented it with P5 contributors
Maybe another year of prioritizing HS talent versus upper tier/elite P5 starters before the upper tier P5 starters and plugging needs is the only use for the portal.

I guess Freeze doesn't like building a roster through the portal,
I believe he will get there, he has to come to terms with what it's about and that he can use his relationship building skills that he is so strongly tied to. He admitted he is learning on the fly right now. He thought he had time for these guys to visit and then work a relationship of some kind.
These guys are making deals fast and you need to show them the love of the dollar on first go around. Build your relationship after and trust the stats and film they already have.
I will say I am hopeful he will adjust and learn to portal better.
