There's some pretty good ones in there too. But it appears the ones we'd be interested in as well as other top schools get those guys quick.

Dabo does not utilize the portal. He does not think it aligns with college football's values nor Clemson's values and will not grab players from the portal.

That's been true so far and that is Dabo's preferential behavior, but he's admitted that times are changing and he'll need to consider dipping into the portal in the future. The future is now probably closer than many think.

with the expectation that some players will transfer at years end.

Probably need to get our coaching situation settled first. Remember, the guys on the portal want to start, not be backups. Not as many primetime players out there that you may think.

I have a feeling Dabo will go to the portal this year. Patience, Grasshopper.

Probably for the same reason we don't take JUCO guys. Most of these guys in the portal probably either have a problem or are a problem. Granted, some of them just want the opportunity to play but a lot of them are probably in there (like Kendrick) because it was a quick alternative to getting booted off of their current team. Kelly Bryant was a guy that wanted to play but he wasn't the best player at his position so he picked up his toys and went home. Do we want a guy that does that? That doesn't fit the culture here - you make a commitment, you stick to it. These IMG kids (getting some bad advice) have shown who they are. Perhaps we're still recruiting them, perhaps not but we certainly know more about them than we did a week ago. At any rate, the portal should be a last resort. We have a great chemistry in our program and something like the portal can blow that up mighty quickly. And if you don't think chemistry is important, take a look at what the running game did after Lynn J Dixon left.

Portal guys transfer to play more. Our offense is young our defense is loaded and we have great receivers coming in. Theres not many opportunities here for transfers unless you are an o lineman. 99%+ of portal lineman are 2 and 3 stars. Heck we got plenty of those.
