    Incoming Portal for '25

    No commitment at this time but an old friend is in the portal again. Had no idea he ended up at Purdue last season after dancing with BK and committing and then decommitting with LSU. He's an athletic freak and even played both ways for the Boilermakers this season. Go get him.

    Watch Tayvion Galloway's videos and highlights on Hudl. More info: Pickerington Central High School - Boys Varsity Football / TE, MLB / Class of 2024 / Pickerington, OH

    Per the Boilermakers' stats page, Galloway has not appeared in a game during his freshman season. So, he's a red-shirt candidate. I didn't find any information as to whether he had any injuries.

      The portal and NIL are going to destroy CFB as we know it. How do teams "build" when 1/3 of the players come and go each year? How does UC complete against O$U with NIL for star players. Hopefully this year will prove to the NCAA that drastic changes have to be made, before it is too late. Nebraska is expecting 40-50 players to leave their current team. Crazy!

        It has been reported that Michigan paid 12 million for Bryce Underwood to go there. Larry Ellison who owns Oracle wife is a huge fan. 12 million is nothing to his bank accounts.

            Yes but he couldn't have mediated without Ellison's money doing the negotiation.

                Gabe Powers, an Ohio kid and former tOSU is available. He is a lb and is pretty good with two years left. I think he would flourish as a couple of tOSU guys did this year.

                  I saw that. There's quite of few high star ranking guys out there that have jumped ship not just from tOSU but other P4 programs. LOTS of WRs .

                    I want an overpowering LT with a couple nasty guards that can pass block and drive them back on a run. Give the skill players enough time, actually just an extra half-second, then boom Evan Pryor to the house or Sorsby making a long connection.

                    Same on D. Give me two more Jowan Briggs type guys coming in hungry
                    Red and Black are more of an Attitude than merely a color combination.

                        We see CSS recruiting the same geographic footprint as Tommy Tuberville, that was a disaster too.

                          Hopefully, he can get some local Ohio kids from the portal. Jayden Ballard, a former top 100 WR recruit from Massillon, just went in the portal. Yes Massillon is on the other side of the state, but WR help is needed.

                            CSS recruiting strategy is duplicate of CTT. No local players, and reliance on transfers in.

                            Wait until next year, after a 3-9 season, how this discussion will be, and how hard it will be to recruit top notch players to UC.

                            JC should take the bitter pill now, and might as well start the road to recovery, as the longer he waits, the harder it will be.

                              Looks like you are not able to sign with a school out of the portal and then flip to another school like we had one guy do last year. Contract is a contract.
