That take reeks of someone whose program can't keep up in the modern era. Oklahoma State is adapting to survive, and bringing in fifty transfers is a strategic move to immediately address roster holes that recruiting alone can't fix. The idea that loyalty is dead ignores reality. The sport changed the moment the portal and NIL became permanent. Programs that cling to outdated ideals get left behind. Chemistry isn't built over four years anymore, it's built in summer workouts and fall camp. Look at Florida State last season, they were a portal-heavy team that nearly made the playoff because they acquired proven talent. For every David Pollack story, there are dozens of players who transferred for a better opportunity and thrived. The spring game is still vital for evaluating that new talent under pressure. This isn't a mercenary army, it's a necessary roster construction method in a free-market system. If you're NOT using every tool available, you're willingly conceding a competitive edge. The sport was built on winning, and Oklahoma State is positioning itself to do exactly that by aggressively managing their roster. Their approach might be extreme, but in today's landscape, standing still is a sure path to irrelevance.
