With the pool of players exceeeding the number of available scholarships next season why would players (I'm speaking in general) enter the transfer portal,
especially players that have seen very little playing time from the school that they are transferring from? If a player is a hot commodity I can see that. For
these 3 they put at risk a scholarship/schooling/room/board and monthly stipend money should they not sign with another school. If I had to guess, I
think it is possible in some cases (not alluding to these 3) that the HC wasn't going to renew the players scholarships.
