I saw a couple of current players entered the portal today. QB Matt Morrissey was one of them.
Ugh. I liked him.
Fling out the Purple and the Gold, We're Marching On.

Doesn't mean Morrisey is gone, just means he's looking around for options. De La Cruz entered the portal last year, then changed his mind and came back. Very few players are going to jump in the portal and commit to another school right away. I'd rather we take our time and get the right coach than rush the process and get someone who is going to keep us on the same road.
I don’t think Delacruz changed his mind. I’m fairly certain he didn’t get any other options (other than a PWO) so he stayed. While the last coaching staff allowed it, my understanding is most would not. Once you’ve announced publicly that you no longer want to be there, it’s probably best you leave.ST_Lawson wrote: ↑Mon Nov 27, 2023 10:45 pmDoesn't mean Morrisey is gone, just means he's looking around for options.

In addition, it is my understanding that your scholarship automatically ends (at the semester) when entering the portal. A new coach would have to re-offer and the amount of scholarship could be less than they had. It is a really chaotic gamble.Rockydog wrote: ↑Tue Nov 28, 2023 6:47 amI don’t think Delacruz changed his mind. I’m fairly certain he didn’t get any other options (other than a PWO) so he stayed.

Most kids entering the portal at this point in the year are trying to move at semester, so I do think they will be committing quickly where they can.
I completely agree that I’d rather us take our time and get the right Coach.
