This will further separate the haves from the have nots. Expect it to become permanent. P5 lose players in transfer portal or dismisses them, no problem they can sign their 25 plus up to 7 more for 32. That’s 448 more players going to a P5 school instead of G5 or FCS.

Of all the recent changes, I think this could hurt the worst.

I could see a scenario where any decent young player we manage to find gets poached by P5 heavies essentially recruiting off our roster.

On the other hand, disaster does breed opportunity, so maybe we start poaching P5 guys who may not be happy with where they are.

I think this boils down to making it legal to recruit off other teams.
 
Lincoln Riley made comments that he does not plan on signing as many high school players and relying more on the transfer portal. I think a lot of P5 programs will do that as well. The G5 schools that are able to get the players from high school that would have signed with a P5 school before the portal exploded will find success. I do not have confidence we will be one of those, but I can only hope.
