The number of kids entering the portal over the past 5 years has doubled. Not quite to 40%. Last year may have been an anomaly with the players being able to xfer without the penalty of sitting out but we'll see if it resorts back to that 21% median.
2018: 883 transfers. 18.9%
2019: 987 transfers 21.2%
2020: 1013 transfers 21.7%
2021: 1729 transfers 37.1%
2022: 138 transfers 0.29%

* Note, these were calculated using 4,654 total D1 scholarships available (not considering extra covid scholarships). 13 per D1 teams. There were probably less as a handful of D1 teams have been added since 2018. So, they should be close. My degree is in mass media, so do with that info what you will.
Adunk, did you get the #s from Verbal Commits? If yes, then the number is actually a little higher for each year. That's because VC removes players from the list who entered the portal but ended up returning to the originating school. I found that out by tracking players we'd been listed as having contacted. I would guess 2021 had about 30-40 kids return and drop out of the portal.

That's a good call. The numbers I used from VC reflected the % of kids who entered and actually transferred versus including guys like Abdou, who entered and returned.

Piss off. I despise asu and hurley. I don't care about the kid who transferred. Sorry if facts make you cry like a little girl.

Go Buffs.
You don’t care but you are constantly posting DJ’s stats when he has a poor shooting game or the asu team is losing.

4-25 is notable. asu is about to lose 5 more games in a row.

At any rate, I couldn't care less about that kid.

Didn’t they just beat the number 3 team in the country last week? But, I know what you will say “DJ had a bad shooting game”. Last I checked Colorado and ASU are on the outside looking in on the tournament. Maybe you can start a thread criticizing the Washington U players.

Funny how you can beat the DJ Horne isn’t producing posts with no one saying a thing. But the minute a Fire Muller post comes up, all of sudden people need facts. Too bad Dayton didn’t hire Dan because DJ is the one who isn’t loyal.

I’m triggered by being called a girl. Is there a safe space I can go to?

The portal gives and takes. The grass is always greener. Dusan got booted off the team at Utah after being suspended indefinitely for the last couple weeks.
