What’s the plan, force these people to stay at gunpoint?
The players like money.

Pay them enough to stay. If talks fall through then say thanks for all you’ve done for us and move on to the next player.

I don’t think it’s too much to ask for it not to be a surprise and for some discussion to take place during the most opportune time. I didn’t say anything about forcing him to coach for a few more years.

But there has to be a better plan than uhhhh, let’s see, opening our portal right after the country’s portal closes.

Yeah, that’s what I’m saying.

Gone are the days where you can just hire the new coach and everything is good. DRASTIC steps should be taken to ensure the program isn’t essentially given the death penalty every time a coach leaves.


With these rules, you lose your team if you go about coaching changes like you did in the past. Which means you should do EVERYTHING in your power to be ready. Because…….YOU LOSE YOUR TEAM IF YOU DON’T.

The is isn’t about 1 player. I’m not melting that it’s going to be tough for a bit moving forward. It seems like I’m close to the only one recognizing how important it is to have a better plan in today’s game.

The problem is you're trying to outbid multiple schools for your own guys. It's not hard to outbid someone if you're just focusing on one or two dudes from a batch of 85. That's what our competitors are doing at this point. Focusing on the 1-2 guys from our roster that can help them out (because chances are anyone on our roster at any given position is better than a dude on theirs)

We don't have enough money to outbid EVERYONE for all of these kids. It's simple math at this point. That's why this one way portal thing is such nonsense. These kids know they can hop in, and there will be at least 1-2 schools (maybe more) that are going to be offering a few hundred thousand, if not 1-2 mil depending on who it is.

Bama has money, but they don't have more money than the rest of our competitors combined lol
