Would love to have someone do the digging and see what we really lost to the transfer portal. Real contributors at their new school. Guys getting to demonstrate what they can "really do when they are allowed to shine"
Our transfers are not going to Alabama and earning starting jobs. Patrick O'Brien bounced around but was been unimpressive, Gebbia? Maybe a few starters out of dozens of transfers. Not a ratio that you could build a great team with.
I don't think Will Farniok is going to start at a power 5, Warner? Great leader, but isn't transferring to Ohio State. Luke is a delusional 'QB' that will transfer to someone that will lie to him about getting a shot at the QB job and then switch positions. Kinda like Crouch in the NFL - saw himself as a QB but wasn't
This is not the end of the world -- its like guys quitting at work to go get a better job and you find out they got fired at the new job.
If this was the end of the world, we would have a long list of transfers getting drafted in the NFL. We aren't losing stars. We are losing players that didn't live up to their OWN expectations.
