From what I understand - the typical portal rules and windows do not apply to your son since his aid was reduced/not renewed. I believe that puts him at somewhat of an advantage with the normal transfer window closing 7/13 and the draft falling after that. Teams who lose high schoolers to the draft would have surplus money/slots to offer that they cannot offer to the rest of the portal field.

Don’t have a link or a list. But I can tell you that the Wichita State program has been a dumpster fire for more than a decade.

Some schools have a policy (not baseball specific) where if you enter the portal, they won't let you come back. I'm sure "your millage may vary here" but I've heard of at least 3 recently.

Really wish d1baseball.com would put an "as of" date or added date column to their list. Would be trivial.

The level will determine the number of signees early on. Those who are still in playoffs will not be in transfer portal. Kinda gentlemen's agreement or just smart that if you are leaving you don't leave until season is over unless you have already had exit meeting and not on travel roster. Bad part is now some will be last minute additions due to guys getting drafted and teams needing immediate players.

I'm guessing there are several that I know that put their name in and are in wait mode to see who gets the job and what opportunities they get. I don't think it hurts a player in their situation to put their name in the hat. I would also agree that D1Baseball is an information thing and very rarely does it change when a player goes to juco. Do a good job with D1 teams but not so good with other level teams. But they are D1baseball.

The program my son has signed his NIL with has already added one from the portal. It will be very interesting to follow the roster turnover / additions over the next weeks to make our own judgements of how much harder it may be for him to see any time on the field.

Transfer portal success story. Joe Whitman pitched 5.2 innings in two seasons at P5 Purdue. Transferred to mid-major Kent State and now he's a top 50 draft prospect. https://www.mlb.com/prospects/...t/joe-whitman-802126

Didn't want to start a new thread... My 2020 who I posted about last summer that was in the transfer portal did not have the season he had hoped for after transferring...which is putting it nicely. Had a great fall, and right before season started strained his lat, but was back by second road trip. Made season debut, and struck out 2 in a mop up role against GT. Went downhill after that, lost his command and seemed got the yips. Pitched a total of 2.1 innings. Was really down for a while,...

Yeah, their list is a mess. Players listed multiple times, schools listed multiple times with slightly different names, etc. Definitely not the most reliable list to go by.

Assuming you mean grad students right? I think that's different, plenty of schools don't have grad students playing, like the Ivies for example. I know my youngest had a lot of seniors, some are coming back as grad students, but speaking with a few parents, a lot came down to if they had a grad program that was a fit. They weren't spending money just to play baseball. If my kids had to redshirt a year and were eligible to then play as a grad student, we'd do the same. Just as it has to be a...

I'll give a little portal update. So far the questions have been: "Where are you playing this Summer"?' "I'm rehabbing". "What are you rehabbing? "Shoulder" silence... It hasn't been quite that bad but that isn't far off. I wouldn't recommend the portal if you are injured but many don't have a choice.

Wonder how common it will be for coaches to notify players at the 11th hour (7/1) that their scholarships are being reduced.

I personally know three kids that are on that list in the transfer portal. One had a disciplinary issue was told to hit the road because of his conduct and nothing to do with his baseball ability. One showed up on campus about 70 pounds overweight and completely out of shape. That school has a Physical Performance program that all players must pass before joining the team. The third is a great player that was not asked to leave by the coaches, but he has a parent that was recently diagnosed...

I haven't kept up with the MLB signing rules, but here is a Wikipedia entry supposedly under the current CBA: "A player who is eligible to be selected and is passed over by every club becomes a free agent and may sign with any club, up until one week before the next draft, or until the player enters, or returns to, a four-year college full-time or enters, or returns to, a junior college. In the one-week period before any draft, which is called the "closed period", the general rule is that no...

I understand your point. I was looking at the school that my 2024 high school graduate is committed to. They are a low D1 program. They have 10 players in the transfer portal. Two of them are starting pitchers that just graduated and will be transferring to Power 5 schools. Two others are senior starters that I assume are looking to do the same thing, a chance to move up to a power five program. (( Edit: The other two senior position players also have announced that they are transferring to...

Knowing a lot of players in the portal and talking to a lot of dad's, there are a lot of different situations and some teams handle things a lot differently than other teams. My son's team has a few guys in over money. They wanted more scholarship money and they are now in the portal. His team had guys go in last year and most all of them returned. Mine is in but he's talked to the coach a few times and he may end up back there too. I doubt there are many teams that handle the portal like...

With a few exceptions, I think that players that want to enter the portal fall into 2 categories: 1) elite players that want to move to a more high profile program and/or get paid, and 2) players that are disenchanted with their current situation (some of which are told to leave anyway). I think it will be very interesting to see how many players that are in the portal never find a new home.

Re: New and improved “Transfer Portal 2023” thread…
I’ve seen coaches wait until after the MLB signing deadline had passed. The player decided to return for his senior year because the coach told him his scholarship was good. After the deadline passed the coach informed him he was taking his money and giving it to an incoming freshman.

Our school is a top 25 D1. We have 6 (there will be more) and I wouldn’t say any left because they wanted to. One had a season ending injury in the fall and had a one year scholarship. I count at least 45 schools with at least 10 in the portal (didn’t include high academies that may have grad students) or the many teams that had 9.

There are multiple schools with 14-15+. I’m sure there are lots of stories, but teams should not have almost 50% turnover.

Re: New and improved “Transfer Portal 2023” thread…
You just really have to know the rules. I can’t believe how many parents don’t understand the rules. We have a rising senior kid transferring right now, because even though he is at a P5, he allowed the coach to trade his scholarship for NIL money his sophomore year. Now nothing is guaranteed for him going into his senior year and he has to transfer. His parents had no idea that he was guaranteed a scholarship for 4 years or that signing to give it up one year nullified that. They saw it as...

Re: New and improved “Transfer Portal 2023” thread…
I wasn't really thinking about the draft. I am looking at it from the standpoint of a coach wanting to claw back money right before the deadline to renew scholarships. I Know "guaranteed" scholarships at the P5 level have never really been guaranteed. No one can probably point to a kid that insisted on sticking around to collect his scholarship for multiple years, but I do think it'll be different at the lower conferences (non-P5) if a kid came in as a transfer only to have his scholarship...

The last day to enter the portal used to be July 1. That was also the deadline for renewing scholarships. Now the last day to enter is after the draft, but I’m not sure if the renewal date moved too. I’m pretty sure kids will be told to enter at the 11th hour if some guys don’t get drafted and transfer in and I’m sure there are bubble guys that they are holding on to just in case. We had a guy drafted last year who called the coach to talk through staying or going and was told to go because...

Now that player can still enter the portal after the deadline. If money is pulled, you can enter the portal any time and it doesn't count against your one time transfer.

My scenario the player was a second team All American as a junior and did stay for his senior year. He was drafted again and played a few years in the minors.
