# Transfer Portal Tracker

Tracks college football transfer portal activity — entries, commitments, impact ratings, and team-level portal analysis.

## When This Skill Applies

This skill activates when the user:
- Asks about transfer portal entries or commitments
- Wants to know which players a team gained or lost via portal
- Asks about portal rankings or impact ratings
- Discusses team needs and portal strategy
- Mentions "NIL" in the context of transfer decisions

## Instructions

When this skill is invoked:

1. Identify the scope — specific team, conference, position group, or overall portal
2. Retrieve current portal data
3. Present structured portal intelligence:

### Portal Entry Format
```
🔄 Transfer Portal — Recent Entries

  Player           Pos   From             Stars   Status
  ──────────────   ────  ───────────────  ─────   ─────────
  [Player Name]    QB    Oregon           ★★★★    Committed → Texas
  [Player Name]    WR    Alabama          ★★★★★   In Portal
  [Player Name]    EDGE  Ohio State       ★★★★    Committed → USC
```

### Team Portal Summary
```
🔄 Texas Longhorns — Portal Summary

    QB  [Name] — from Oregon (★★★★, 3200 pass yds)
    WR  [Name] — from USC (★★★★★, 1100 rec yds)
    ...

  Outgoing (5):
    LB  [Name] — to Texas A&M
    ...

  Net Portal Grade: A-
  Biggest Need Filled: QB, WR
  Remaining Needs: CB, OL depth
```

4. Include context:
   - Player's production at previous school
   - Fit analysis for new team
   - NIL market implications (if known)
   - Impact on team's projected win total

## Portal Timeline

- **Portal Window 1:** December (post-season)
- **Portal Window 2:** April (spring portal)
- Outside windows: immediate eligibility waiver cases

## Note

Transfer portal data changes rapidly. Always include a timestamp context and note when data was last updated.
