How should the existence of the transfer portal change a team's recruiting and scholarship approach?
HOW DO YOU THINK THE TRANSFER PORTAL WILL AFFECT THE FUTURE OF THE GAME BROADLY AND NU SPECIFICALLY?
- Does it still make sense for college teams to offer 4-year scholarships?
- Why should teams invest in player development, when they can bring in pre-developed transfers?
- Should NU only be recruiting players who are ready to play in year one?
- Does the approach to recruiting the OL and DL need to change, given that first year recruits often need two years in the weight room to develop the physique necessary to play in the B1G?
- Is NU more likely to succeed bringing in transfers, especially graduate transfers, because it's easier for them to get accepted to the graduate school (TGS) than as an NU undergrad?
- Will NU have to adapt its policy of honoring 4-year scholarships -- even for players who never see the field -- to remain competitive?
- Given the value of an NU degree, are non-contributing players more likely to stay at NU (tying up schollies) than at other schools?
