Contrary to what is being told, the money is not there this portal season like it has the last 2. Which makes sense, but also goes against what we’re being told.
If the money was there, you would keep Flory. We know what he is. He’s only going to get better. We have absolutely no one behind him. Yes, it’s not ideal to overpay, but if money is not an issue, then what is the issue.
Pretty much every top tier portal player we’ve gone in on is trending elsewhere. We’ve obviously learned this year that fit is very important, but there’s been a couple where it seemed like a no brainer. Yet we don’t want to match our competitors, which whether we like it or not is the market value.
The narratives, “we are being selective with our money” and “the money will be there” are not really jiving with me.
