Bulls--- post because entering the portal now has nothing to do with being bad or good. It is simply a by-product of today's players believing they deserve more playing time or the grass is greener elsewhere.
As of today, Alabama wide receivers Traeshon Holden and Christian Leary are expected to announce in the next few days and at best, Alabama can be described as having a "down" year but certainly not "bad." Earlier Crimson Tide DB Khyree Jackson declared a week ago.
Oklahoma wide receiver Theo Wease has announced as have Tulsa quarterbacks Braylon Braxton and Davis Brin after their coach was fired. Others include WMU top rusher Sean Tyler, Florida State defensive back Sam McCall, Colorado safety Isaiah Lewis,, Northwestern leading receiver Malik Washington, Texas backup QB Hudson Card, Syracuse receiers Courntey Jackson, Anthony Queeley, and Dom Foster; FIU's tight end Rivaldo Fairweather, Duke LB Rocky Shelton II, DB Tony Davis, and WR Darrell Harding Jr.; Indiana QB Connor Baselak who transferred to IU from Mizzou plus back-up Jack Tuttle, who started one game; Iowa back-up QB Alex Padilla, Michigan original starting QB Cade McNamara, Oregon WR Dont'e Thornton Jr.; Stanford safety Jonathan McGill, Texas A&M RB LJ Johnson, and Missouri wideout Dominic Lovett.
Supposedly there are already 26 FCS players in the portal and that number will definitely grow.
