The portal window was agreed to as part of the House settlement with the government. There won't be any work around unless a coach leaves.

Understood, but the NCAA cowers to any threat of legal action.

Revenue sharing. P4 is paying depth guys $50-60K.

A couple of other solid signings have happened over the weekend, as well. Maybe they were mentioned and I missed it but Nick Sowell, a 6'6" WR out of SC State signed along with Timothy Taylor Jr., a 6' 280lbs DL out of Jacksonville State.

Sowell started in D2 where he had a strong freshman year, moved to FCS SC State and had 21 catches for 250 yards this season. Might be used in a Tyrone Broden fashion where you can just throw up jump balls to him, especially in MAC play.

Taylor Jr. redshirted as a freshman last year. Big dude, looks strong, will probably see the field early this year.

Kaderris Roberts has transferred to Delaware. Good luck to him there.
