2024 Transfer Portal Ins/Outs

Depending on where you draw the line on "mostly", technically yes.  But your examples keep changing.  Your first example said 30 one-year players.  That's nowhere close.  Your second example said 50% one-year and 50% two year.  That's not very close either.  And even if either of those were what we are doing, according to your numbers, that's still three times what Rhule said a year ago. 

Now you're at "mostly" one or two years, which could be significantly less than either of your previous examples.  Plus, you're allowing for transfers to be gone in a year or two but not high school recruits.  

Of the guys this year, 5 have 1 year, 5 have two years, 5 have three years and 2 have four years.  That seems to be a pretty good mix of all different eligibilities.
Maybe I misunderstood, but I thought someone said that the team would be mostly transfers, which I don't think it's correct. I could be wrong, so I'm trying to do the math to figure it out.

Using your transfer eligibility numbers and assuming no transfers back out, we would have 17 transfers for the current year, 12 from the previous year, 7 from the year before that, and 2 from the year before that, which is 38 of 105 transfers on the roster.

That's 36% even if none transfer back out, so that seems like the upper limit given the assumptions. Still more than 3x what Rhule said he wanted previously.

Not really possible to assess this fully- roster is nowhere near set- but if you project forward to the 105 spots, with what they have now (I still believe a transfer or two more is probable), I have it as 23 total transfers on the roster. So not even a 1/4 of the team. (3 of the Huskers who entered the portal were transfers from other FBS teams- Thompson, Dowdell and Neyor.)

Agree. Maybe that was part of the deal to get Emmett Johnson back in the fold after he entered the portal. 




Not sure about that but it had to have been frustrating for him having them go into the portal last year and get a sophomore in Dowdell. A senior is different because then at least you know they're gone after 1 year while they're claiming they're developing you.
