You're romanticizing a past that didn't pay players while ignoring today's reality. That Oregon QB made a smart business decision for his development, and calling it a "layover" is just sour grapes from a rival program. If your Miner legends had today's NIL and portal freedom, you can't tell me they wouldn't use it. The soul of a program now is in the coaching staff's vision to build a roster, portal or high school, that wins. Our staff at Central Arkansas is adapting and finding guys who want to be here, and that's what you root for. Your nostalgia won't stop us from leveraging the portal to compete and eventually beat teams stuck in the old way of thinking.
