Thanks for doing the updates and keeping us posted. 

I heard about this guy being the big fish in the portal. I knew about losing a lot of O-Line players this year and didn't think about how we're losing most of the secondary after this year. It's definitely a position of need and probably not the only secondary portal player coming this way. 

What a crazy thing to have the portal going right before the playoffs start. I get players on teams finished for the year or lousy bowl games transfering, but I almost feel bad for the players leaving the playoff teams. It's hard for me to imagine not wanting to stay with the team for a potential natty and enter to portal the next cycle. 

The timing of the portal sucks, there is no other way to put it.  So many ways to slice it, won't lay them all out here.  That said, the reason this portal is open now simply has to do with the academic calendar so players can port to their new schools and enroll/move before the next semester/term starts.  Marshall just canceled their bowl invite as they won't be able to filed a full roster since there was a coaching change and over 20 players already in the portal.
