I think many of us were hoping for something different and see the benefit of the portal. I can see this being a topic of discussion well into the season next year.

I'm a bit shocked there aren't more additions to the team. Time will tell.

I think what many don't realize is a large amount of the top talent that enters the portal is already spoken for and/or already has it down to a few contenders.
Through intermediaries, like high school and club coaches, the conversation advances pretty far.
It isn't the "free market" you think it should be.

I can’t think of a reason why OSU isn’t getting transfers at a level befitting their program level. Scott seemed to benefit from a long-term relationship with Yeaney- that shouldn’t be a small list of players in the NCAA in general that fit this description. I do think that the general trend of “coming home” has hurt OSU, particularly since “home” is close to several other very good programs on the west coast. Still, even at that OSU isn’t getting its share IMO.

Per wbbblog, 263 Power 5 players entered the portal. 158 have committed to new teams. Not sure what confidence to put in this site.

Quite a few have moved on to non-P5 teams.
It would make a great documentary to see what all the people do that don't land at another school.

I see 201 P5 players who've found a team (105 P5>P5... 96 P5>non P5)... and 254 who have found new teams overall... and 158 have commited to P5 team whether from P5 or non.

All I can say is no news is bad news, wait till next year you will have your answer. We are not assured that Reagan can start the season. We are down to 2 players at power foreword and post? Does this concern you? We lost all our depth? In my opinion for no legit reason! Rueck needs to cough up some info about what’s going on, not just Cancel the end of season team awards! He is not just a wounded warrior, he needs to level with his supporters. This is starting to be fishy. It stinks if you ask me! The longer this goes on without words the deeper this pit sinks!

So...keeping all members of the #3 recruit class in the country and the most important player from last season is...fishy?

He is entitled to that opinion. However, I say watch and wait some more.

It’s not on Rueck. It’s systemic. Arizona transferred out 8 transferred in 3. Utah lost 3 added 1. Washington lost 6 added 2.
A sign of the times.
