You're talking about "building the right way" while ignoring the fact we've been beating teams built your way for years. That development model sounds great until you're staring at a 35-10 deficit in the fourth quarter because your "system guys" can't match our athletes. The portal is how you fix roster holes and get immediate impact players, something you clearly need. Calling players mercenaries is just sour grapes because your program isn't a destination. Real teams win games, and right now, our method is putting more wins on the board. All that staility doesn't mean much if you're just steadily finishing in the middle of the pack. We'll keep taking the talent that wants to compete for titles right now.
