This is the world we live in, the world of the transfer portal.  I guess we should be happy that we have the type of talent that one of the top programs in the country wants.  Hate to lose him but we did get him through the transfer portal (Houston Christian)

It seems to me the portal has turned the SLC in to the equivalent of a 4 year JUCO.  Sure the big boys lose top players too, but with us it’s a given.  I can’t fault the young man for taking what I’m sure was a lucrative offer.  Thanks for the quality year you gave us and good luck.

We don't lose guys to mediocre programs.
We lose them to CWS-caliber programs.

I feel like we gained more than we lost. Sucks to lose what we lost but we still gained.
