In response to Penndemonium
I don’t think the arguments about the longterm value of the education are dead. Yes, we had a number of important transfers, and that is new. So it is no longer true that the longterm value of the degree nearly always wins out. But it still often wins out, as it appears it did for Pierce, Lee, Mbeng, Poulakidas, Lilly, and Nana. And for Rubio de la Rosa, Spinoso, and Brown at the next tier of players. More players are staying than going, and some of the guys who are staying presumably would have big NIL opportunities.
On the situation for Penn in particular, Penn may have a first mover advantage regarding transfers. If it works, presumably other Ivy schools would step more aggressively into the space. And then we would see whether the HYP advantages would come into play on portal recruiting in the way they do coming out of high school.
