***Official portal tracker thread***

Rodgers coming here from Washington State is way closer to a lateral move than Campbell going to PSU from here. Campbell can't call guys as the head coach of Penn State and bring in transfers who are better that ISU backups? I realize relationships mean a lot but damn.
Look at the guys entering the portal. Like every dude is a four and 5 star out of HS. Maybe Franklin was an ace recruiter but it looks like falling ass backwards into 4 stars is the norm. You’d think he could start pulling some good non-ISU guys fairly easily. But so far not the case.

Still makes me laugh. Don’t have the resources to compete so just bring in ISU guys and pay them more.
 
How did ASU just make 300 million in debt go away?
The university wrote a check for 300,000,000.00 to athletic department- and magically the athletic department debt has vanished. I think David Cooperfield is the university president. I placed a link to the story that covered this.

Guessing from the foundation. Where our AD borrows money from.
 
Wazzou punter from Iowa entered the portal.


This is his Wazuu bio. - Civil Engineer major
HIGH SCHOOL
Attended Van Meter High School in Iowa…two-time All-State as a kicker…as a SENIOR, named All-District as a punter…three consecutive state championship teams at Van Meter High School from 2021-23…went a combined 11-of-13 on field goal attempts during the 2023 and 2024 seasons with a long of 54 yards…Academic All-State and All-District…interested in engineering…rated three-star kicker by ESPN.com.
 
Sowell going to Penn State is crazy to me. He's not a long term piece nor is he a guy you can trust to be an immediate contributor. Unless you took him as a depth piece to play WR4 or something.

Campbell will not be beating the allegations that he's just throwing money and scholarships at "his" guys whether or not they're actually good enough for Penn State.

I think next year may test Campbells "culture building" skills . His locker room will have a large group of of ISU guys, and a large group if Penn State holdovers. Could be an internal gang war pretty easily. I guess time will tell.

It will probably be fine. Like ISU, new hire season is for cleaning house.

The old starters seems to be leaving or being pushed out. So I doubt there will be problems.

One explanation is

And in my book, he gets a graduate reception- but not a legendary reception like Mr. Brock Purdy or Will McDonald,Breece Hall, David Montgomery, etc... I hope somehow The new and improved Cyclones play Pedo St. In a bowl game and whip some Pedo St. A$$!
I'd love to play them in a home playoff game in Ames.....man would that be a pissed off crowd

Meh. Just have the HR person come in and play a couple of ice breaker games to get them to know each other and it’ll be fine.
