So 2 of the offseason portal signings didn't even make it to May and are leaving. At a minimum they are going to need to wrap some type of commitment length to this. Even a year would be an improvement.

I am guessing that programs all around the country are experiencing this.

Follow the money, leave a program when another one offers you more money. Leave a program that makes you a bit uncomfortable. Leave a program where you feel you aren't going to start.

Pro Scouts and GM's are going to have to start looking closely at players that transfer multiple times. If I am a GM, I am downgrading such a player and questioning what type of commitment said player would give to my team. Imagine if the NFL suddenly decided that contracts are a thing of the past and players are free to move to whatever team offers them a better situation.

I think some already are. I've read a few draft profiles this offseason where scouts mentioned that a certain player shows character by honoring his NIL commitment when he could have jumped ship for a bigger deal. I can't say how much weight that carries in their evaluations, but in those cases at least, they do notice it enough to mention it.

And I'm pretty sure James Pearce was one of them, in fact.
