Someone earlier stated that once a player enters the transfer portal, he is effectively "resigning" from the team. Is that true?

Scholarships are indeed renewed yearly, but in reality it's pretty hard for a coach or school to "pull" a scholarship from a player absent misconduct. This is especially true for a counter sport like basketball, particularly when all of the scholarships are fully funded.

That said, does anyone understand the transfer system enough to comment on what the real risk is for a player? Not a rhetorical question, I'd really like to know how it all works.
