iirc, entering the portal voids the scholarship agreement with the current school. Player becomes a free agent upon doing so. Current school could still sign him back, but can also immediately move in a different direction.

What history or statements are you basing this on?
In general, yeah, the freshman QB is less likely to win the job everywhere. What makes you think KD is different?
Another year of KD belaboring the youth on the roster should be fun.

KD coaching history
His 2 years at CU?
I can't even remember his UCLA roster choices. Were there cases of him going with a less talented vet QB over a super frosh?

Need someone who will recognize and exploit....BLew is not that guy...
My thoughts always go back to that Pats-Giants Super Bowl when the NYG played a DL of 4 DEs, the Pats OL couldn't block it, and Brady looked like ass because he couldn't set his feet or step into a throw. No QB is good if the OL is regularly allowing that.
When does that process get started? Seems like it could really help us out.
Another hilarious reply. Maybe I went there because, as a black person, I notice when other black people get targeted by racist shyt.
BTW, I think it’s odd that neither of your replies ever denies the possibility or probability that the athletes who left Colorado have received racist messages from butthurt fans. It’s just about me.
Exactly. A million times this.
Dude, you need a redshirt year. All this is moving too fast for you and I think a year in the system where you sit quietly and watch and learn would do you some good.
On that old school approach, Joe Paterno was a great example on usage of freshmen. He'd always had a policy of "better to put a guy on the field 2 weeks too late than 1 play too early." It worked great for decades. Then, it started killing recruiting and he had to change by giving his talented true freshmen snaps over trusted vets. Him adapting on this was what got PSU back to being a top program (prior to the Sandusky mess).
A lot of this is a culture shift within our society that started with the Boomers.
Well-described in "Father & Son" by Cat Stevens - "From the moment I could talk, I was ordered to listen."
Progressively different attitude every generation. As an Xer, I thought I was open-minded and disrespectful of authority, but I'm continually surprised and put off by how people who are totally green and in entry level positions believe their opinion should be heard and given equal weight. They don't seem to get the concept of paying dues, earning a title, and then being in a position to drive decisions & culture.

I worked with and mentored a lot of younger Millennial engineers, and I was always surprised when this popped up. Their first months on the job and they were complaining they weren't working on the tougher, more glamorous projects. The concept that they had to prove themselves on $500,000 shallow wells in Kansas before they were given a $100,000,000 deepwater Gulf of Mexico well was just foreign to them. To be fair this wasn't all of them. Maybe 40-50% of them fit this trend. In hindsight, there seemed to be a strong, negative correlation between entitlement and engineer quality.
Everybody, get off nik's lawn.
If they’re good enough to hire, shouldn’t their opinion be worth listening to on decisions and culture?
No. Not a general assumption that should be made.
Thanks, wasn't sure about that.
Assuming that Howell knows this, how in the hell were we that far over the scholarship limit this year with us having over 20 in the portal and now are only 3 under the limit?
(I guess only 1 now with the Main and Oliver commits)
I think with the Covid+1 eligibility and guys having 6 years on the clock, it was tough to fit all those classes within the 85 limit. Particularly since CU chose to sign a large class instead of going with a focused class which left more room for portal additions.
Nice. This is some good sh!t. Now, just need to find a QB that can get him the ball...

Not really. We're full now with our 2 commitments.
And an offensive line to protect yet to be found QB.

It's simple, we need guys who probably won't contribute like Carter to be encouraged to move on as we have a replacement lined up.
Best not to have too many OL for spring. Don’t want to have to share those critical reps.

I don't think before I post
Asking a project freshman QB to transfer after 1 season seems bizarre. If you are recruiting a kid to develop and then give up after a season. Yikes…not a good look.

Not a good look for Carter. The staff burned his red shirt on purpose. If honest conversations are being had, he should know where he stands. Players have to leave from somewhere for more transfers, who would you like to see move on?
