I think it's going to be rough for a few years, but with the relaxed transfer rules, this could result in a circumstance where underperformers at P5(P4?) schools lose income opportunities because the get eclipsed by the next big thing every year. The turnover rate at P5 schools could be pretty spectacular and we might actually see more talent come down to the G5(G6?) level.

Or it could be a cluster****.  I'm just imagining all the guys on P5 rosters 3 deep that want to play and get exposure that could absolutely come start at the G5 level, especially on harder to recruit positions (O and Dline, TE, corners, safeties). 

Will probably settle into a cycle where high performing G5 and FCS players are recruited up and P5 backup choose to move to G5/FCS to get playing time. My problem with this system is the blatant recruiting of players before they enter the portal. This needs to be addressed. I also think more and more schools will focus on transfers and a lot of HS players will not get FBS offers
