TheBootleg: Stanford defensive end Joshua Pakola appears to be returning to the team in 2021 after all. 247Sports reporter Chris Hummer wrote on Twitter Thursday morning, “Stanford DE Joshua Pakola has withdrawn from the portal, @247SportsPortal has learned.”
Pakola previously entered the NCAA Transfer Portal, reported on Jan. 29. While a player entering their name in the transfer portal means they intend to explore their options, it does not necessarily mean they will leave. A player is free to withdraw his name at any time. However, schools are under no obligation to keep a player on scholarship once they enter the portal. As of Thursday morning, Pakola was still absent from Stanford’s 2021 spring roster.
