I could be wildly mistaken, but I think some of the portal guys stay. It's a problem, for sure, but the portal is real part of any coaching change in 2022.
Why USF would want to hire from the Bob Young coaching tree..you'd kinda have to know Bob Young and what he means to this program. Kalen DeBoer (Washington Huskies) is from that coaching tree, along with his existing staff. Certainly it's not all they are looking at..but to get someone who's still playing football (playoffs) is going to take some time as well.
I wont agree with your take on the AD and things like that, but I can see your frustration with this process. I'm looking more here and on our pod about what the future brings.

Landon Freeman scholarship offer to D1 FCS Samford. USF coaching Pipeline at work there. Hakeem Johnson a former USF DB just recieved 2nd tm All conference for Samford. Jordan Knapke a former USF DB also recieved 3rd tm All Conference for Northern Colorado as well. Seeing a theme.... would like to keep these top notch recruits as I believe Justin Mathuei is as well.

Absolutely possible. There are not rules about conferences and stuff in the portal. In the old days, D1 programs (I’d assume other levels as well) would authorize a transfer, but block certain schools or within the conference. With the portal, the player is much more in control and can go wherever

The silence regarding this coaching search is fairly enjoyable as a fan of an opposing school.
in related news the portal gets another one:

D line was their strength on defense last year and 9 guys who got meaningful playing time have either used up eligibility or transferred. Don't know what to make of next season

The thought with Durfee is he was going to likely be gone either way..as the Argus article a month ago had propped him up in a such a way that he was likely going to end up at D1. The coaching staff even told me that before the year.."we are going to have a hard time keeping this guy"..
Since the initial candidates didn't pan out for the administration, I think this second portion of search has likely moved out in scope to outside the initial coaching tree..and the Thanksgiving holiday wasn't good timing for them as it slowed things down with needed people not on campus much of last week. I think there's a real chance something could occur yet this week, as we saw with Winona..sometimes there are a few layers to these things as that search took much longer than this..SMSU wasn't a sprint either. The sudden firing has likely jilted the players more than the turnover at a Winona..where they knew Sawyer was done at the end of the season well in advance.
This is just another example of how the portal will change processes for programs going forward.
