About Portal Swipes

Recruiting in the Portal Era. Simplified.

The transfer portal has transformed college athletics. But the system itself hasn’t evolved fast enough to support the speed of recruiting today.

Portal Swipes was built to fix that.

Created by former Division 1 head coach and professional baseball player and current Major League Baseball Scout, Eric Roof, Portal Swipes is a streamlined, swipe-based app designed specifically for college baseball players entering the transfer portal and the coaches recruiting them.

Here’s how it works:

  • Players create a profile with their athletic background, academic information, stats, and recruiting details.
  • Coaches create a profile representing their program, school information, and roster needs.
  • Both sides swipe to connect, just like a modern matching platform.
  • When there’s mutual interest, a match is made and the recruiting conversation begins.

 

No more endless spreadsheets. No more buried emails. No more missed opportunities. Just direct, intentional connection.

Built for Coaches Who Need to Move Fast

Portal Swipes gives you:

  • Athlete profiles with key stats, academic info, position details, and recruiting data — all in one place
  • A streamlined swipe-and-match system built for speed
  • Immediate visibility into potential roster fits
  • Direct connections with players who align with your program’s needs

 

When there’s mutual interest, you match and move forward. This is efficient recruiting.

Built for Athletes Who Want Visibility

For athletes entering the transfer portal, visibility is everything.

Portal Swipes gives players:

  • A centralized profile built specifically for coaches to evaluate
  • A faster way to get in front of programs actively recruiting
  • The ability to connect directly with coaches who show real interest
  • More control over their recruiting journey

Instead of hoping your email gets opened or your film gets watched, Portal Swipes puts your information directly in front of decision-makers.

Why It’s Different

Portal Swipes isn’t a generic recruiting database. It was created by someone who has firsthand experience on both sides of the recruiting process.

Whether you’re building a roster or searching for your next opportunity, Portal Swipes will help you move faster and connect smarter.
