6) Player searching for better competition to play against in order to impress NFL scouts
7) Player is losing his starting job to someone below him
8) Player simply looking around and will later withdraw from portal and remain with his existing team

It's wild. To win, a coaching staff will have to effectively manage the portal. The portal can be huge because of major additions or major losses than can greatly affect your win/loss record in the fall.
Read a big % of these players are not finding landing spots. Will NCAA address this loss of educational opportunities of the "student athletes", or are they now just unsigned free agents? Their decision, tough luck?
