Yes, it makes sense to look at the occasional portal player or JUCO transfer or grad transfer to fill gaps/holes that occur due to attrition, but you really shouldn't build your entire team around that or you'll end up being transfer U with no identity/culture.
Or you will end up like Missouri St and have a team that is built to try to impress right now, but not for the future. Sure Missouri might be better next year, but after that with no culture they drop off the map. That is of course unless Petrino stays and he just keeps going after transfers and they hover around 7-4 every year. But like I have said before and his track record shows, he is only out for himself and looking for his next big payday.
From the movie THE PROGRAM
Regent Chairman: This is not a football vocational school. It's an institute for higher learning.
Coach Winters: Yeah, but when was the last time 80,000 people showed up to watch a kid do a damn chemistry experiment? Why don't you stick the bow-tie up your ass?
