The Trend.
College coaches recruit over their own players that aren't entering the transfer portal.
They pay a player that wasn't happy somewhere else to come play over their player that was loyal.
The rent a portal player usually plays a season and is right back in the portal and the same loyal player is still on the roster.
Does the coach keep making the same mistakes?
or
Does he learn to value loyalty?
