YSU and the Portal

[peteonastick]

Two in the portal so far. Both d lineman. Learhman and Augustin.

[YsuPride]

Both not too good news on a defense already struggling.

[peteonastick]

Alex Howard and Treadwell. Both declared for portal also. Either they are leaving because of poor coaching and preparation or the coaches told them to hit the road, you aren’t good enough to play here. Defense getting gutted.

I thought Howard was one of our best defensive players!

Nobody wants to play for this small time weenie coaching staff, especially defensively. Don't blame Howard for leaving. He is big time.

[YsuPride]

Howard will probably go to Pitt

[Kandrase]

Howard got an offer from Michigan State as of today.

[YSUGO]

Howard is has. 1 yr left as a grad so I think rules states he has to transfer.  In his twitter he had sd Michigan St offered and Liberty already.
If I was a YSU receiver I would be concerned about who is throwing to me in 24.  Could be growing pains and some guys don’t want to waste a year for that.
 Plus now with the portal the bigger schools can cherry pick off the smaller schools especially with NIL to build depth etc

[YsuPride]

Howard has received offers from Mich St, West Virginia, Georgia Tech, Liberty to name a few.  He is going to be a big loss and should succeed at his next schooll

If he has to xfer that is one thing and a smart move.

If that is how the game is played now, I assume that we will cherry pick off the smaller schools, aka D2.

Wudke in the portal too.

[YsuPride]

9 defensive players are in the portal.   Sucks

Would love to know why. Are they unhappy with the coaches, are the coaches unhappy with them, something else?

Make it 10.... Jordan Trowers gone. It's eye opening this amount of good players leaving. Shows you the incompetence of the coaching staff. Players know...
