Paperworks is all filed now time to see how that all shakes out.

What do y’all think is a solution to the problem super-late entries pose to teams? For example, assume the Duke/Mensah thing didn’t have a contract dispute at play, and he asked to enter on the last day he could. That’s your whole season right there, if you’re Duke… and the QB market has already happened, and you have no time to entice others to enter. You are totally screwed. One suggestion could be for two distinct phases: one phase for entry, then that closes, and only then can you negotiate directly with players and sign guys. But that disables both players and teams from reacting in real time to what’s happening—a Bo Barnes wouldn’t be able to go find playing time elsewhere after we sign a Biles over him, for example. Players would be forced to choose between staying or entering the portal, before knowing what their team will do. And that would mean essentially everyone would enter the portal to keep their options open. Not a great solution or effect. Thoughts on a better solution?

It’s time for you to go to bed

Well, watching Xavier Lucas, Damon Wilson, the recent kid who "flipped" to Michigan after allegedly being an on campus "short-term signee" at Utah, the Husky QB "j/k" boomerang, etc.... Maybe our guy is just lawyering up for a June move?!

Not going to lie, this was probably the worst portal window ever lol. I couldn't imagine having to be covering this or being apart of it. Was stressing me out and I'm just a fan lol. Thanks for all the hard work by OTF and all the laughs we got a long the way with all the members here. It made the process a little more tolerable.

Thus the caveat. That would be a big clue... let's see if we don't receive a straight answer from the mods over the weekend or on Monday before the game.

By some miracle I hope it’s Bray Lynch at Indiana who graduated from Westlake. Maybe he wants to come home after winning a title.

Do you say this because we have heard from legit sources that he definitely didn't? Or is this the rumor going around? Or is this a statement based on the lack positive evidence that he did? Just curious, thanks

Mysterious guard could be playing in a game next week

Welllll… let’s see what unfolds now 🤘🏼🤘🏼

Seaton on line 1. Have to pay the premium if your mysterious guard didn’t enter.

Nah

Well, here we are. Past the deadline for players to request to enter the portal (unless they're on one of the two teams playing for a natty). Our mysterious Guard has either requested to enter the portal, or he didn't. And if he didn't, there's no going back now. Yes, there would be many other things that have to happen before he could wind up on the 40. His previous team can delay two business days before fulfilling his request, which would put us into late Wednesday or early Thursday (sorry guys). And of course, even if he requested to enter, at any point he could decide to stay where he was. Then, if he does officially get entered into the portal, Texas would have to sign him against all other teams, including his original team. But we are past a significant branching of possibilities. If he has not already requested to enter the portal, all other possibilities are off the table. There are only two possible worlds at this point, and I want to know which one we're in! So: did he request to enter?

It’s closing time

Welp

I think they have to tell their school by 11:59 ET but the school has 48 business hours to put them in and Monday is a holiday so Wednesday will be the final official portal entries. Not 100% on that but that’s what a lot of reports have been

Well, looks like Rod B. is ALL in…

@Bobby Burton, he’s been my dawg since 1989!!

not related.

I’d be surprised given paperwork has to be submitted tonight.

Wanna bet?

Not necessarily, just wait till Wednesday that’s when will know 100% who’s in

no commits today

So if we don’t hear about “intent to enter portal” in 53 minutes, I’m assuming we know what we’re working with

Good luck with that Ole Miss. Not only will you lose in court but you'll now spook other future recruits. That's why contractual damages exist.
