    This guy has stayed with us through thick and thin: well a lot of thin anyway. Hope he finds success somewhere.

    Is this an old podcast? I think Josh Pate said something along those lines a while ago. He could be right, I'm not sure if we're still portal hunting.

    I think he did at one time mention the Gators specifically. Here's my thought... if we go portal shopping it will be for obvious upgrades.

    I think it's a good sign that we didn't lose many to the spring portal. I interpret it that the players want to be here and the coaches want these players here.

    There will always be a few holes to fill through the portal but it would be nice to have the majority of our starters in the system for a few years.

    Billy has strong convictions on how to build a program. It's easy to deviate from the plan when you aren't producing the desired results and the fans are restless. Billy has me believing.

    So I guess this portal crap is over ? We didn’t lose anyone that’s going to hurt and picked up a few that should help. Pretty dang fortunate. Great job by Napier.
