Reply to "transfer portal article"

Thanks for sharing

The transfer portal did not exist when my son played D1 college baseball...not that it would have mattered much to him.  So, this is very new to me.  

After reading the article, I believe this helps the non-athletic scholarship student in a big, big way.  First, it gives that preferred or walk-on student an out.   Second, it incentivizes the Coach to try to keep a player.   Third, it helps balance out some of the power D1 coaches and schools have over D1 college athletes.   I still do not like the fact that a D1 coach can leave a program for much greener and richer pastures and the students are still beholden to the school.   IMHO, it is still too much power, but this is a good start.

As always JMO.
