As if today couldn’t get any worse…

We’ve had players each year in portal including #21 catching punts today. And we’ve had almost 0 players in portal or transferring pre-portal who’ve gone on to do something somewhere else. I struggle to think of 1 successful transfer story in the last 10 years?

So….not really that concerned. He may likely be back by la tech

The transfer portal is the worst thing that has happened to college football.
At WP we cannot bring in any proven talent but our talent can leave before junior year.
You may enter but you start as a plebe. Who is going to do that?
Is that fair to the academies? Of course not.
We are a member of the NCAA that has no rights under this arrangement.
Therefore, sue the NCAA as unfair.
Of course not. We just sit there moaning and groaning that it is unfair.
What kind of crap is that all about?

The same with the NIL. We cannot pay players but all other schools can pay players.
Therefore, sue the NCAA as unfair.
Of course not. We just sit there moaning and groaning that it is unfair.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, The A/N/ AF games are the only pure amateur games left in college sports.
They all praise us for our dedication but in the end, they all beat the shit kicked out of us on the field of play.
They get the donor NIL dollars. We get an "atta boy" response. What a bunch of horse dung.
Buddie gets a plaque on the new east stands. We get the bill.

My class started with 1200 and graduated with 800. Get over it. Not the portal but the toughness

Can’t say they don’t get paid.

Monken and drinkall both were in the portal these past 2 weeks too

Udoh was recruited by P4 schools so anyone that is shocked by this has blinders on. The fact that he is a sophomore and has no commitment to pay backs makes this the perfect time for him to leave. Listen I hate that we lose our best running back but this is the landscape today. If Navy recruits or develops a stud athlete they will have the same problem. Unlike some of our other players that tested the portal I think Udoh will find a home. I would be shocked if he is on our roster next year.

The news sucks, but if you are Udoh and want to test the market now is the time.

Just what I expected. I used to love to watch college football The only games I watched this season were the Army games. The transfer portal is just as bad in basketball. Might as well hold a college draft and be done with it. I wonder if the NCAA had any idea of what the magnitude of transfers would be. I agree with everyone who has posted that the "sport" has suffered from this thing.

Wait a minute here.
TEST THE MARKET???????
What are we running at West Point?
Are we running a stable of potential stars for the NFL?
Are we running a school for training future officers to defend our country?
We all have to make a choice, a commitment !!!
One or the other.
Frankly, I hope this kid gets no offers AND no money. We do not need these type of guys at West Point no matter how good they are or not on the field of play in any sport WP offers.
The rule is this kid is screwing all of us because he can just walk away without paying the government (us) NOTHING !!! Not a damn thing.
Udoh gets a payday for transfering
Change the rule. You leave as a plebe, you repay what education you receive at that point.
There is no free lunch for anybody.
This 'aint no retail market we are running here.
And some of you are saying he deserves a chance to transfer????Some are saying his move is acceptable.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME???
Kick him in the ass and throw him out. He is a disgrace to the academy.
We are so damn WOKE in this country, it makes me sick to my stomach.

No bullshit guys. It is my opinion.
