iMO, I think the ones that are entering the Portal would have done it last year but didn't have sufficient game minutes/stats/film to land in a good spot. The 5th year guys coming back didn't help playing time either. It's just a shame because the guys seemed to be so tight but I get everyone has to do what's best for themselves in the long run. It's just such a gamble. I was talking to a College Coach last year at this time and he said 2 of 15 kids in the Portal went to the same level or higher than where they left. Of the other 13, they either went down or didn't get picked up anywhere. Not a fun experience in the short period that Fletch was in it. He was very blessed to be able to play a 5th year at BU.
