Transfer Portal 2025

OU might close on Tae AND Frankie.

That would be terrible for shooting/floor spacing reasons.

I hope I'm wrong. I'm not in any DMs. Reading the tea leaves a bit. Hard to do in the portal era where so much is being ran through agents.

If you want both then maybe you'll be excited....to each their own.
Might be all OU can afford, unfortunately.
 
You also can't compare the mens game and women's at all. Women don't have nearly the same $$$ that the men are bribed with. So much easier to retain
So I've been told ad nauseam. But is it? Even if you're just making $10k in NIL (I'm making up numbers here), if someone offers you $20k, you're going to be tempted to make the move.

I've never made big bucks. If someone offered me a job that paid $100K, I'd be thrilled, while many people would be insulted by that offer. A high schooler making minimum wage might change jobs for an extra fifty cents an hour. It all depends on which pool you're swimming in.
 
It doesn't seem like they're bargain shopping right now.

It feels like they're in the middle of the pack money-wise.

It'll come down to plan, evaluations, and execution.
I just think you need a difference maker rather than a ton of depth. OU is probably better off paying to get 10 players with one of them being really good, and finishing the roster with junk.

Having 13 pretty okay players and no studs ain’t it.

Teddy makes this same point about the football portal. We bring in quantity but very few difference makers. Obviously we can hope Mateer is a massive exception to that trend but mainly we bring in guys who may or may not start on the lines of scrimmage.
