The portal isn't the problem. It's not having to sit a year that is.


Keep the portal. Just go back to having to sit a year, NO exceptions, and the issue eases a good bit. Keep grad transfers getting instant eligibility, because, well duh, they graduated, but absolutely no gray area issues needing an army of lawyers to help them stomp their feet, cry and get their way.

The NCAA dug this hole itself through it's own ignorant inconsistency applying the hardship rule.

The portal is just a means to take away the underhandedness of tampering with potential transfers and really is a good idea. The really terrible idea is instant playing time. They need to know there are consequences for their decisions sometimes.
