Personally it doesn't bother me too much, I feel the sport is more about the uniforms and the coaches. I don't really mind the lack of player continuity from year to year. Of course if ND starts losing successful players to better programs my tune will change.

you know they're adults when they turn 18, so what can you do. I heard Rick Neuheisel on ESPNU Radio yesterday morning say that there are currently 4800 names in the NCAA Transfer Portal for football and something like scholarships available for about 12% of them (or maybe 12% would get offers?). Not sure how he came up with that figure, but I'm sure he knows more about it than I do.
