TheRosterHub — The Real-Time Collaboration Hub for Transfer Portal Recruiting

The problem

The way most coaching staffs manage the transfer portal is broken

The window opens. Within hours, hundreds of players have entered the portal. Your assistants are working their phones. Your staff is spread across the country. Your head coach needs to know right now — who are we targeting, who has been contacted, who is visiting, who is off the board.

And right now, you're managing all of it through group texts, shared spreadsheets, and a whiteboard that half your staff can't see.

One Power Four general manager called portal season "an absolute s--t show." Most programs don't have a dedicated personnel department, an analytics firm, or multiple assistant directors of player personnel. The burden falls on the coaching staff who are also running practices and managing existing players.Programs don't lose portal recruits because they weren't interested. They lose them because they weren't organized.

15 days

The 2025-26 football portal window is 15 days. Basketball's window is the shortest ever at 15 days. Across every NCAA sport, coaching staffs have a hard deadline, hundreds of moving prospects, and a process that most programs are still running on group texts and whiteboards.

Most programs can't fix that today. Not because they don't care — but because they don't have the right tool.

What TheRosterHub does

One hub for your entire portal recruiting workflow

Head coaches, assistants, and recruiting staff manage every portal prospect in one place — from initial identification through commitment, with every coach working from the same live board at the same time.

Every coach gets their own login.: Head coaches, assistants, and recruiting staff each get their own individual account — standard, not optional. Every note, rating, and contact log is attributed to the coach who made it. Unlimited staff members at no additional cost.
Load your entire portal board instantly.: Import your full list of portal prospects in minutes — pull names from 247Sports or On3, paste them in, and upload. Every coach on your staff sees the same live board immediately.
Assign prospects, track status in real time.: Assign specific prospects to specific coaches for contact and evaluation. Status dropdowns show exactly where every prospect stands — Evaluating, Contacted, Visit Scheduled, Offered, Committed, or Passed.
Notes, evaluations, and film.: Every coach adds evaluations, contact notes, and flags directly to each prospect's record. Attach film, transcripts, medical records, and any other materials to the prospect's record.
Your rating system, your fields.: Configure TheRosterHub to match how your staff evaluates talent — position fit, scheme fit, eligibility, NIL expectations, or your own criteria. Add custom fields for whatever your program tracks.
One-click PDF and full class exports.: Generate a clean summary of any prospect with one click, or export a complete record of every prospect your staff evaluated when the window closes — your recruiting record, clean and complete.

Who this is for

Built for programs competing in the portal without a personnel department

In every sport. If your staff is managing portal season through group texts, spreadsheets, and a whiteboard — and you've ever lost a portal recruit because the right coach didn't have the right information at the right moment — TheRosterHub was built for you.

Group of Five and mid-major programs: Where the coaching staff manages portal recruiting alongside everything else — TheRosterHub gives you the coordination infrastructure Power Four programs pay personnel directors to provide.
FCS, Division II, and NAIA programs: Entering the portal or scaling up portal activity — TheRosterHub gets you organized and competitive without enterprise software complexity or cost.
Head coaches in any sport: Who need a real-time view of their entire portal board without chasing down their staff for updates.
New coaching staffs and recruiting coordinators: Arriving mid-season or mid-cycle who need to be operational immediately, and coordinators managing a portal window across a staff scattered across the country.

The difference

Not a CRM. Not a recruiting database. Not a spreadsheet.

TheRosterHub is not a year-round CRM that takes months to implement and requires a dedicated administrator. It is not a recruiting database trying to compete with 247Sports or On3. And it is not a spreadsheet.

It is a purpose-built, coaching-staff-designed collaboration hub that your program can be using on the first day of the next portal window — in any sport — with the speed and simplicity that the portal demands. Power Four programs have GMs and personnel departments; TheRosterHub gives everyone else the same coordination advantage, at a price that fits any program's budget.
