We have enough of a sample size of the trends related to the transfer portal. In recent years, we've seen many of the nation's best players at the position emerge after transferring and turn their respective teams into instant Playoff contenders, some winning the Heisman and even national championships.
While college football's new approach to recruiting, it creates an opportunity for many looking to fill talent voids every offseason, it's disheartening for some who don't have the resources for roster retention. Most coaches are split down the middle on the growing free agent market and many have had to shift traditional mindsets with regards to roster building in favor of signing experienced players over prep talent.
For coaches of the first-year variety, the portal shortens the time needed to overhaul a roster. Immediate success no longer takes solving a multi-year formula. Instead, the two-deep can look entirely different a few months after stepping on campus.
We take a look at the trends we have uncovered thus far.
