So what happens when guys decide to enter the transfer portal and they don’t get picked up by another University or College? I don’t hear anyone talking about that. Do they then stay at the University they were trying to leave and then what the heck does that look like??? If they were even on scholarship does that University still have to honor it after they decide to enter it? Or can they just say “ok, you want out, so you’re out” then go out and recruit someone else for that weight and give them that scholarship?? Lots of questions I know, but I don’t hear anyone talking about it and if they did then I missed it.
Their original school is allowed to take them back on scholarship. But it is not required for the school to honor that scholarship once the player/wrestler enters the portal. Every situation is unique if the guy who enters the portal decides to come back
That would be extremely big of a Coach to take a guy back after entering the Portal, unless it’s someone really big. If you’re not and you enter then I wish you the best of success, but I’m moving on and recruiting your replacement immediately. I was looking on the Portal last night and there are guys on there that are going to find it very difficult to be picked up because they haven’t done anything. The majority of these guys are going to eat some humble pie. They better be prepared to go to a D2 or D3 school if they want to continue wrestling because I have a feeling a lot of them are not going to be on a D1 Roster.
