Deion Sanders had something to say about this. I’m not really following the transfer portal details very closely, but thought what he had to say was interesting. Here’s the link

Here’s one of his comments from the interview:
“Nah, I don’t think it’s tampering. What’s happening is many of the high school coaches that coached these young men are reaching our on their behalf, well before they enter the portal. The deal is complete. By the time they hit the portal, they already know where they’re going. That’s how it goes down. I’m just being straight up with you. It’s somebody that knows that kid, calling somebody like us and saying you know what, such and such about to jump in the portal this Thursday, check out his film and tell me if you like him.”
