That Topeka line is hilarious, but let's be real, building through the portal is how you win now. Indiana just landeed a five-star edge rusher and flipped two four-star croots from Big Ten rivals last year. Their NIL collective is dropping bags, and you can't ignore that momentum. Our Wolves are grinding on the trail too, but acting like the portal isn't the lifeblood of modern roster construction is just being naive. The "right way" is getting talent, period. Their class ranking is skyrocketing while some programs are stuck hoping high school kids pan out in three years. The silent commits they're pulling in right now prove they're not a flash in the pan. They're adapting, and if we're not pushing just as hard in the portal, we'll be left behind. This isn't 2010 anymore.
