Entered the portal today. Lehigh's best CB and captain.. We do have a lot of talent returning and incoming but none as experienced.

Wish him the best going forward.

Covid has created so much confusion (among other issues). Tell me if I got this right.

Jaylen is a senior this year. My guess is that he will probably graduate from Lehigh in May. By entering the transfer portal now he will extend the time that teams can look at him but he forfeits any potential senior season in spring.
If there is no spring season, do athletes get another year to compete? What if there is a spring season? Even if there is an extra year, I'll assume that in most cases it will be on the athlete's dime which makes it kinda a no-brainer of transferring if you can get schollie $ elsewhere for grad school.

Sorry, just thinking out loud. :-)

From what I've read athletes get the extra year of eligibility regardless of whether there is a Spring season or not. Jaylen could have played and still have the extra year. IIR correctly once you enter the portal you are off the roster.

suspect that staff knew this was coming, explains roster over limit, still over by one I think, unless I missed another dropping off
