USF players and the Transfer Portal

That's not accurate, but it's also not worth arguing about.  There was no agreement to have fan interaction on the board, he did that voluntarily.  He did meet other parts of the deal only coming up short on number of tweets, which I waived as fans became more vicious.

He did leave and poke a few Bulls in the eye going to UCF.

But people here tell me its perfectly fine for Golesh to leave for P5.  Everything given a coach is being extended to players, a real proletariat revolution, so why shouldn't Grier be able to go?

You are correct, I misunderstood the discussions within the various NIL threads. Looks like there was some talk to set up subscription fees for more direct player access, which for my understanding, never came too fruition. Do you have any data or measurables that you would be able to share to determine whether this NIL experiment was a successful endeavor? What can we learn from it? How can we do better?

That said, I'm still bitter about the way Grier left and feel like he played USF and it's fanbase.

I think the important thing that is being lost with the Grier decision "business is business". Is he actually going to make more money playing for UCF? This is the real problem with the future of recruiting for us. If we can't even compete with the tinmen when it comes to NIL, then we are truly ******.

UCF are now in the BIg 12 so its normal that right now they are ahead of us in recruiting. That's why its important to not be left behind next time in realignment. However a good HC will find ways in this new environment to get good recruits to USF. I think the transfer portal can be a benefit to us. We should look at SMU in regards to what they have done in recent times through the transfer portal.

Dude Grier is gone, give it up.  He went to UCF.  A poor decision in my opinion, but oh well.  Don't care at this point.  Golesh will find someone out of the portal and fill in the needs.

Winning usually cures (or at least hides) fan toxicity. Losing seems to have the opposite effect.

Looks like they are heading west to Aimes, Iowa… Hopefully they can find the transfer portal

Is Wolff still the only new commit?
