I remember when opting out of the season was a big deal

Dabo will find a humane way to utilize the portal.

My belief is that is the first year or so, some really good players opted out of some bad bowls because any minor chance of injury wasn't worth risking millions of dollars. Fast forward to now and we have some mediocre players opting out because they think that it somehow indicates that they too, are really good players. This is and extension of OK level Jrs leaving for the draft or kid entering the transfer portal because they think they'll be better, do better or be treated better than the school they have been for multiple years. In short, players with big egos listening to bad advice.

Maybe they are being accountable to their family and their future? Because the coaches and teammates don't have a problem with it. It's generally seen as the wise call in the meaningless bowl for someone with NFL talent who is going pro. It also gives some opportunity for next years players to get some PT and preparation.
