Yep, only accessible by NCAA members. Or just see the public posts on X. I already count two players tied to BP that he's trying to help get exposure that only spent a year after committing to college and are now looking for new homes.

If BP got you into a mess - why would you ask him to help get you out?

Most elite players would never post on social media about being in the transfer portal. They rarely - if ever - post when they are picked up by a new team. They let the team post it. If you have to advertise that hard, no one is going to want you. It screams of desperation.

Maybe it has nothing to do with soccer like PP have mentioned.

Working your way into the line up at a top 20 program is not easy.

As it's been for last 50 years for thousands of girls. I think the point is that the portal makes it too easy to leave with perceived issues that otherwise would've been normal for a Freshman. Think how rare it is to get playing time as a Freshman, let alone minutes that were on par with your previous years. The snowflake generation now feel slighted for not playing a lot and just being a freshman they leave asap. Gonna be rough

A college coach tells you. It’s not a secret.

Wonder how many players are freshman, who didn't do enough due diligence and realized only after committing that it wasn't a good fit, vs players that have multiple years under theit belt and are looking for another, possibly better opportunity.

You will NEVER know. There are billions of reasons to transfer. Most of them have nothing to do with soccer.

It's more than 700 today.

How do you know there are 700?

700 girls in the portal. That’s 25 new college soccer teams. This doesn’t even count the 50+ players who have had their offers pulled before the season start
