how much of that net transfer balance actually translates to on-field success? like, do teams with big positive net gains actually improve their win totals, or are they just cycling depth players?
Great chart. This alone shows why there is more parity in CFB and why Clemson sucks. Good players not getting playing time aren’t waiting around at blue bloods and Clemson is losing players but not filling the holes.
