Florida edge rusher Jack Pyburn entered the transfer portal, which is his right. However, the narrative around the portal and its accessibility with an air of entitlement seemingly hurts college football.

Well, according to reports by Zach Abolverdi of Gators Online, Pyburn demanded a $45,000 monthly stipend, a guaranteed starting position as an outside linebacker, an assurance of playing on third downs and increased snaps in the rotation. The Gators declined these requests by Pyburn which made him enter the transfer portal.
