That is likely what happened to Shrop, and then when he figured out his best option would be to come back, he didn't have that option.

Although, student athletes are free to leave, UAB Football is about family. If players continually enter and exit the portal it would be counter productive to the family atmosphere and what CBC is building here.

With that being said, I would love to have Shropshire back, but understand that this could set a precedent where you see erosion of team chemistry and more Blazers test the water in the portal.

Ultimately, I think if more programs elected to not allow players back once they entered the portal you might see a chilling effect as (G5) players wouldn't enter unless they know where they are going. I wouldn't see this being an effective strategy at P5 schools where the pool of "Power 5" talent would be smaller.
No rule is 100% so if this is true I would hope Coach will reconsider. The word family means it's baked in "You can change your friends but you can't change your family". Kids make mistakes and the adults in the room should respond like adults not that tit for tat stuff. For whatever reason the last third of the season has been one major roller coaster ride with extreme highs and lows. I hope we can bottle that backup and get back to winning games......as one next season.
