I did not say I thought that would happen. You stated "Yea but there is no value and no immediate impact if they can’t bring anyone with them. The portal closes in 4 days. If those names are not in the portal by then they’re not bringing anyone with them." Since there was talk of Adams in this thread I was just pointing out that he "could" bring players a player(s) with him. Not saying it would happen.
I get it. There is a chance. I usually don’t limit myself to 3-5 “potential” players. When there are literally thousands in the portal. The logical thing would be to have someone in place weeks in advance of any portal deadline to get maximum benefit. As an old mentor of mine used to say. “You never fire without knowing your hire.” Here we are replacing a coordinator for the 3rd time. And following the same flawed process.
Keli is definitely paying attention. She will give lip service to the press about Greg but she’s not working her *** off to raise all these funds only to give them to a guy no one wants to work for. She’s done a deep dive into the program. She knows the challenges she’s facing both internally and externally. Greg is quickly reaching sink or swim status.
You never know- Indiana has become king of the portal which means they have players the will be portaled over..,
I’m sure it could happen but I have my doubts. I hope he comes with the entire DB room. But logic takes me in a different direction.

Huge red flag this year- in previous years, we may not have brought in the elite transfers but we weren't losing talented players to the portal.
Do you really think that Bo (Toast) Masco was worth anywhere near 7 figures??? Bo thought he was!
I have no idea of his worth but if a blue blood like Texas with NC hopes likes him.,,hmmmm
With our hugely underperforming Defense last season combined with the departure of the more talented defensive players to P4 teams via the Portal hopefully means only one thing. Schiano had a very good recruiting & highly ranked class on the Defensive side last year. Perhaps he feels redshirting these pivotal players last season they are now ready to step up and star on Defense: DE Collier, CB Clayton, S Tariq Hayer, DT Braxton, LB McClary , LB Kamar Archie.
I would hope so but if he was planning to count on them this year, he should have gotten each of them into 4 games last year…
I thought about that too but either he thought they weren’t ready physically yet or he was attempting to keep them under the radar and not get poached in the Portal { I know wishful thinking}.
. I know, not funny but ……
Still the best part of this thread…
What a waste of the portal. Portal closes tomorrow and we can’t make a hire. Only 47 days from last game. And only 88 days from when Robb was stripped of playcalling duties.
Sadly, past AD's have allowed, even encouraged him to do what he pleased.

If RU announced a big NIL package for Bo, people would lose their ****. Just saying.
It’s the same every year. Last year it was JMU guys instead of Maine.
And they would be right to do so. Bo wasn't very good in 2025.
Bo was much better before last year, where he regressed. But, it seemed that every single DB on our team regressed last year. Maybe, it isn't all on the player. And Texas sees a talented kid that needs to be in the right program
