The NIL and the transfer portal are ruining college athletics (for me). The normalization is trickling down into high school athletics. I get it that it's all about the $$ but it doesn't mean I have to like it. Where's the loyalty, school passion, etc.?
🚨 | The Oklahoma Sooners may be in BIG trouble for next season...
Since the opening of the Transfer Portal, the Sooners have lost their ENTIRE Offensive Line 👀
This was capped off last night by Cayden Green, a True Freshman Starter for OU, entering the Portal. He was expected…
