That old school mentality is exactly why your program is stuck in the past. Coach Chris is a legend, no dout, but the game has changed. We're building something real here, and the portal lets us fix roster holes immediately with guys who are hungry to prove themselves. You call them mercenaries, we call them impact players who chose Buffalo State to win. Those four-year guys you romanticize often came from losing cultures. We're bringing in athletes who have played at a higher level and know what it takes. They buy in because they see a staff that can develop them and a chance to be the foundation of something new. It's about winning now, not waiting five years for a recruiting class to maybe pan out. Our locker room chemistry is stronger than ever because everyone here wants to be here, portal kid or high school signee. You just wish your staff was as aggressive in adapting to the modern game. We're building a champion, and we'll use every tool available. The Empire 8 isn't going to wait for you to catch up.
