Exactly what the transfer portal was NOT meant to be used for. Thanks NCAA for your corruption, incompetence, inaction, and pointy-headedness. Demolish the whole institution and start over with the schools that matter. Everybody else can take a hike or do their own thing... I don't really care.

Who's got a cool 3 mil lying around that will snatch him up?
The pointy-headedness is just uncalled for.
 
This is getting crazy where starting QBs of major programs are entering the transfer portal. Where does this end? At some point there needs to be some really well thought out rules around NIL and transfers, but I have no idea who is going to do it, because it's clearly not something the NCAA is going to do or even probably capable of.
 
From the article above about McCord.
"As time went on, Kyle got better as the season went on," Day said Sunday. "Had a little bit of those ankle injuries that he worked through; he showed toughness there. Certainly the Notre Dame game, he played really well down the stretch. So I think there was growth there, for sure, and I think he's a good quarterback, I do. After every year, you evaluate everything, and try to figure out what to do next. But I think there was a lot of progress made this year."

On Sunday, Ohio State was selected to play Missouri in the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic on Dec. 29. Day was noncommittal about McCord's status as the team's starter when asked about it Sunday.

"When you come up short, the bottom line is you got to look at everything, because you didn't get it done, and that's the thing that is just sobering here," Day said. "At 11-1, you come up short on the last possession, it's just not good enough. So you got to look at everything, and we will look at everything."

Sounds like he was encouraged to leave to me.

Thus the reason the reported offer to WSU QB Cam Ward makes sense.

"Mr. McCord? The reverend is on line two..." ;)

They need to at the very least shut down this early “jump” period - it’s ruining the bowl games and it’s not necessary. Coinciding with the early signing period just makes a hectic situation incredibly messy.
Man, I used to love college football…
 
Some of these players aren't really planning on leaving. Just trying to get leverage to get more $$.
FIFY.
Most of them aren’t good enough to actually justify increasing whatever NIL bucks they are getting now - unless they aren’t getting any, in which case I guess anything would be an improvement.
 
Free agency without some limiting factor like a salary cap is not going to work long term. Employment law used to open up NLI. but competitive leagues are allowed to set up limits to maintain competitive integrity. The NCAA died a slow death and plus they could care less. The school themselves will eventually have to meet and agree to some sort of limiting factor that doesn't run afoul of the laws that were used to open up NIL. But between now and then you're going to see some of the most ridiculous crap imaginable.

B1G, are any other than the first two in this list going to negatively impact OSU to any extent?

At some point it needs to be understood-
“You shop -we shop. You hit the portal looking for a better deal, we will too looking for a better player that wants your scholarship. No guarantee we will take you back”
