Daily News | Temple coach Stan Drayton talks the transfer portal, the new reality of college sports
In the case of Temple football, that reality is the revolving door that has become the NCAA transfer portal, giving the athlete to power to transfer in and out of programs. Programs that many times have committed a lot of resources in acquiring and developing.
Last month, former Temple defensive lineman Darian Varner transferred to Wisconsin. Although Varner’s loss could be significant, the remaining players who entered the transfer portal were not impact starters.“Sometimes things are going to hit you sideways with this portal,” said Drayton. “You may lose an older player, you may just lose a younger player by way of the portal. “I do believe that’s the climate that we’re in right now,” Drayton said.
“You just took all that time to develop these athletes, and there’s a chance that you may have developed them for somebody else ... but unfortunately, it’s a reality in today’s world.”Drayton said Temple’s roster is still low on numbers at certain spots. Heading into spring football, Temple might have to adjust the workload and length of its practices.
“You just don’t know who’s going to be [out] there or not,” Drayton said. “You just took all that time to develop these athletes, and there’s a chance that you may have developed them for somebody else. So those are things that we are not excited to talk about, but unfortunately, it’s a reality in today’s world.”
