I read an article in The Athletic about a kid who was all-conference, lead the country maybe even in tackles as a linebacker, was a bit undersized etc. who went into the portal thinking he was gonna get swept up by a P5 team, and nobody came knocking, and now he's in limbo as a lot of spots have been filled, etc. Obviously the numbers between football and basketball are different, but I think it happens more than we know.
Yeah literally though, what's stopping some rich billionaire alum from just throwing cash at a "play thing"?? Nothing with NIL, I mean hell look at what Texas A&M did in football (granted they aren't some scrub, but to out recruit Georgia and Alabama is impressive), oil money runs deep. I'm kind of shocked Phil Knight hasn't just turned Oregon into a play thing at this rate to be honest. It does even the playing field a little and bring more parity on, however some schools are obviously more loaded with rich alum than others. Not to mention, those rich alums have to care about the sport they're throwing money into.

Coach Ben Johnson snags Dawson Garcia from the portal along with a talented PG from Morehead. Gophers will be much improved.
