Of course, we might be doing Port an injustice. It could be that he is brilliant in his field and has forgotten more about the Grimm than all the students, put together, know. We just saw him when he's at his worst - boasting in the first ever lesson in an attempt to impress the students with his authority. Agreed. When he talked to Weiss in EP9, he definitely knew what he was doing. He loves to talk about himself, that's for sure, but he's probably actually a really competent teacher. I have a feeling its more that Port was an amazing huntsman back in his day, yet circumstances such as age and a deteriorating youth/health forced him to give up that job and become a teacher. The main reason he boasts so much is likely that he misses the old days, where he could feel the rush of the lfie of a huntsman.
