That's a hilarious way to spin getting out-recruited. Building men doesn't win games if those men are getting beat by more talented players. The portal is how you fix roster holes immediately, and calling it "renting" is just sour grapes from a fan whose coach can't close. Real programs use every tool available to win now, not just hope their "culture" beats better athletes. Your moral high ground looks a lot like the consolation prize for fiishing third in the division.
