Here's a couple of more quotes and insights from Head Coach Terry Bowden from my recent conversation with him on recruiting and the portal -

"Getting start late in the game, we are actually at a bit of an advantage though. Guys are going to jump in and out of the portal, teams will use up their slots and then when they compete in the spring some guys are going to get beat out and jump back to the portal to find a place to play. This is why we are saving our spots for these guys."

"The best teams are the ones that have guys that hit the portal late. At Clemson, a freshman like Trevor Lawrence can come in and take a starter’s position and that guy is going to want to transfer. Maybe the better teams might have wanted them, but have no spots left for them to sign."
