#2. The “mercenary” route is modern CBB. Gonna be less than 10% of guys that are 4 year players. If you are worried about BYU dipping too much into the portal, look at the number of upcoming freshman for 25,26 and beyond in the U.S. and Europe that KY has already targeted or publicly offered. I would bet that he’s going to recruit less from the portal than Pope did by a long shot. Pope did very, very minimal high school recruiting.
