We’re not going to complete with the very top programs, but I’ve found it surprising that UK comes up in the discussion for so many good players that hit the portal the last few years. In the past, if a good player transferred I would never assume we would even be in the discussion. Why do you think that is? I guess we can afford a few guys from the portal but not a whole recruiting class? We missed on Leary and some secondary guys last year but guys like Cox and Davis were great for us this year. Considering our high school recruiting leaves a lot to be desired, it’s nice to get some impact players another way. Even though we are supposedly near the bottom in NIL, the current environment seems favorable for us.
