Im not saying they lack character by transferring, but this 30 day portal is a blessing in many ways.

If you really wanna make lemonade out of lemons...I think this does several things:
1) Takes the immense pressure off of coaching staff. They arent expected to do much
2) Galvanizes the guys that stay and provides tons of motivation. Bama hasnt seriously been the season underdog in many many years and I think the players will eat it up
3) Huge selling point for DaBears first recruiting cycle that there is playing time to be earned at the best program in CFB
