2024 Transfer Portal News - Please Respect My Decision

re: transfer class rankings

those who track this stuff closely, I seem to remember criticisms from last year that the systems were flawed and only tracked incoming but not outgoing or something like that.

is that still the case? what's the most respected ranking for transfer classes?
 
I find it interesting that ESPN ran a top headline when Tank (mediocre at best OT) announced he was going into the portal.

When the #1 OT in the country commits, not a word in the headlines:

2 reasons in my opinion:

1. They’re butt hurt that Seaton broke the news on Fox.

2. ESPN wants Prime in the SEC where they control the SEC Network and get all the eyeballs/ratings that come with a Coach Prime football game. That’s why Stephen A is is always saying Prime should go to the SEC and is hating on CU.

- Looks like CU can get the big boys to come to CU Stephen A. You can F**k off Stephen A!!

Maybe ESPN should force the SEC to extend an invite to CU

There is no good method, and this year will be even worse. The rankings only count for additions, without netting out subtractions and, as we saw last year, they have trouble adjusting to quantity. Watch the individual rankings and if we add highly ranked players at positions of need, it was a good year.
 
John Lee Eldridge III and Caleb Rillos from AFA in the portal as grad transfers. Rillos is a really good TE IMO. He was a threat in their passing game, and if you start at Air Force there......you have to be able to run block. I'd take a flyer on both guys if we don't have to jump through all kinds of hoops for them.
