There is another portal related to head coaching changes. As people have noted, Marion doesn't stay in one place very long, but don't know that he did enough this year to draw the attention of teams looking for head coaches. However everything about Sac football is in flux....schedule, league affiliation, divisional status, facilities...chaos theory run amok.
I would expect a large number of Sac players will enter the portal as "insurance" against not having a schedule for next season. With only 3/4 games "inked", my guess is that they are having a very hard time finding games. Might also have a hard time holding onto players that have already committed for next year, especially any receivers.
If Marion stays he’ll just farm the portal again. He’s proven he can recruit. And of course now that he is in rather close proximity to Folsom (prison), there might be some parolees available. But in all seriousness, it was amazing all the talent he brought in on short notice. Would they bite again?
I have a hard time seeing a full repeat of what he was able to accomplish with recruiting this time around, not saying it's impossible but he was previously able to sell that they were going to the Pac12, that they had a massive influx of NIL, and that they were going to national championship. Recruits now have had a chance to see it play out for a season and as far as I can tell none of those things came to fruition.
