How? He couldn’t/wouldn’t Block. That’s the weakest part of his game.

J.Lay as far as playing O-Tackle, is best predicted by the old line:
Looks like Tarzan, but plays like Jane.
Good luck to J.Lay, though ... from what I've read he's apparently a good guy.

Sounds like he has no takers. That is going be the sad part for many portal guys.

He should’ve just declared for draft and started working on his combine measurables. Some idiot GM would probably draft him based on his size and athleticism alone

Jobs are on the line with these draft picks (up to 6 firing of coaches and GMs today). Maybe signed to a practice squad.

young men entering the portal will find themselves in the same situation.
Hence, why I think it important that they have asked themselves the question: is my decision to enter the portal based upon wise considerations?

This unfortunately is the norm. There are way more that DO NOT FIND A HOME & most of these players leave without having a degree. If a player goes to the pro’s before graduating, they are always welcomed back to pursue their degree. These guys are out there alone and most do not have the financial means to go to school.
It is a SHAME they stepped out there without completely thinking it through.

At least he will depart with a degree in tow, so best of luck.

Did no one read the tweet? He graduates in May

From Clemson which he will have done on 3 years I believe. So he doesn’t necessarily have to go anywhere right now( this semester)As Dabo had said, Jaelyn wanted to go somewhere different for his masters. I wish him the best and hope he also finds somewhere he can contribute via football also.

Of course it is. He doesn't have a resume like most that enter the portal.

The reality of the portal may be hitting home in his case.
