Transfer portal numbers...WOW
- Thread starter wldctky
- Start date
Let’s be honest at 18-22 why wouldn’t you enter to see if someone will pay you more to play a game. Most of these kids will never play again after college so bank what you can while you can
Over a third 😂
If a team has 12 players, that means that about four of them will probably transfer.
And will most likely get worse until NIL settles down if it does.
Free agency every year is totally sustainable.
It makes continuity even more valuable, way less time reinventing the wheel on system and expectations with a few translator/coaches on the team.
This. And not to hijack the thread, but I’m interested in seeing how quickly sports books will adjust for this. If you like to gamble on college basketball, I think this is a very lucrative time as oddsmakers are still figuring out this new landscape, and lines are not as sharp currently as they once were.
I agree with this.
Using $250K NIL as an example, it probably took me until my 30s to earn a total of $250K after college.
I would certainly try to collect all the cash I could at that age, especially if “good college player” was my professional ceiling.
At the end of this cycle, I would like to see the stats on how many of these 4000 players end up with no NIL AND......
NO SCHOLARSHIP!!
NO SCHOLARSHIP!!
Pay me Popes salary and I’ll work 18 hours a day and clean the toilets in the Craft Center to boot.
I thought it was far more than 35% to be honest. Yes, absurd, for sure.
More than that ... as Seniors leave, not to mention the headcount of new Freshmen.
I'd expect it to increase unless changes are made. I'd also be way more interested to see just D1 numbers. I'm assuming they're hiring than D1 or I doubt they'd include them.
They're all Independent Contractors now. I'm surprised it's not 50% or more.
Yeah can't blame them. If they are even modestly smart with their money they could fund their retirement before they're 20.
That # does or doesn't include foreign players who transfer in to US schools?
Probably not included right?
Probably not included right?
The number I seen were just for D1 but said just 41% had committed. That leaves a lot of players with no teams yet.
Maybe get the players involved and have a new path of NIL. Scrubbing bubbles? Mr.Clean?
35%!!!! Just give them ALL one-year NIL contracts and make everyone a free agent every damn year!!!🥴🥴🥴
IMO, it seems that people/ businesses/ donors/ fans/ etc. (except for the ultra-wealthy) are going to start limiting their financial exposure to these teams-agents-player's yearly NIL deals and the constant turnover of personnel.
IDEA: Each of the portals open the day after the individual sport's national championship and runs for 45-days before closing.
IDEA: Possibly these sponsorship contract deals could run for a minimum of 2 or 3 years, at a higher dollar amount just to keep some continuity for the sponsors. Include release buyouts for both sides.

That's interesting. I didn't think of that. There have got to be some left without a chair when the music stops.
That would suck.
If you don't know the answer before entering the portal, it probably is not going to work out for you.
The money has increased 10x in 4 years. This is not Free Agency and it’s up to the academic side to get some controls in place.
Put $1M into the nasdaq for 20 years and you’ll be worth $9M by the time you’re 40
