Why is nobody talking about how the whole "portal overhaul" strategy is a direct threat to the gameday atmosphere we build at Byrd? You see these teams like Oklahoma State bringing in 50 new guys and Colorado with 43 transfers. How are those fans supposed to know who to cheer for? They're just rooting for a jersey. Our identity isn't built in a transfer window. It's built in College Park with players who grow here. When you watch a team that's been assembled like a fantasy draft, the connection in the stands just isn't the same. The student section feeds off knowing the guys who have been in the program for years. Can a school really create a true home-field avantage when half the roster has never experienced a rivalry game in that stadium before? We're doing it the right way, building a core, and that's why Byrd will be rocking when it matters.
