If Dabo is committed to returning to the playoffs

He will pick up a few star players out the transfer portal in the next few weeks. If he decides to replace the departures with walk-ons and 2 star high school players like years past we will be relegated back to winning the ACC as the ceiling of the program.

If they're stars...then

Why are they in the portal? Are they good players...some are...just in the wrong scheme for their skill set. Caleb Williams was an outlier...as was Evers.
If I were running a program, the portal focus would be on those that had been recruited and lost out on late in the process. Those would be the targets, as much would be known of them. If leaving their current program isn't the result of illegalities, then considering them isn't any worse than recruits who haven't committed to the offer they've received. The window closes.

Dominic Lovett, Grant Dubose, and Jimmy Horn Jr would be a nice start. We should try to get at least one of them

The portal for high end players is essentially an auction payable through the NIL. I dont believe we have the funds or willingness to participate in this manner. Anyone thinking we can simply reach out to an elite player in the portal and get their attention with nothing but a scholarship to offer will be disappointed.

Jimmy Horn Jr. – never got a Clemson offer. Will likely have to outbid Tenn/Uga....He is already looking at Colorado
Grant Dubose never got any offers form any 1. only has 1 year left?
Dominic Lovett never got a Clemson offer. Probably have to out bid the entire SEC

Once again, for those that haven't been keeping up,

But keep Portal Whining, AT this point, we have 12 Seniors we know can leave(Putnam's staying) and 4 open slots before early draftees leave and transfers. That's 16 available spots with Recruiting Class at 23 going to 26.

Don't worry Danny Pearman is watching the portal for us. He's being paid a quarter million a year apparently just to watch.

If Dabo is committed to returning to the playoff's he will rehire Jeff Scott, and go recruit the best talent out there. Most of those players in the portal probably are no better than some of the ones that exit through the portal.
