We and EVERYONE else is going to have to rely on high school recruiting primarily to build our team. Even LSU this year- the majority of their team was built through recruiting at the high school and JUCO level.
Literally nobody has ever said we should "build the team" through the Portal. That's a strawman argument

What we said is that we needed BM and a Friday arm. Ie, use the portal to fill holes, just like everyone else in the SEC. Lemo failed to do that
