[QUOTE="DrJacket, post: 271213, member: 913"] It occurred to me to say this, if only for my sanity. Here (in this thread) as well as others, and in media "comments" online-- we're seeing what I believe is mostly reasonable discussion. Speculation about players' circumstances....[I]wish we knew more[/I]....[I]don't have any ill will toward them[/I]....sorts of discussion. Good. As it should be. However, the occasional conspiracy theorist speaks up. They attempt to point out that this is "a lot" of players transferring. Speculating that there must be something wrong at the program level. Seems to me that we ought to wait and let time do what time does. That is, let time sort this out for us and see if we really end up with all that many more than normal of the players moving along. See how many more (if any) transfer. And, even if they do-- is this year maybe just an outlier within a program that isn't used to having many players transfer. We've got to pick a tune. Often, the same people are lamenting the "small" recruiting classes and wish that we could sign more players and higher quality. The reason we historically have small classes is because of the low rate of transfers relative to other programs. Suddenly, we've had a little more brisk activity than we're used to. Best I can tell, every one of these kids' situations are different. Why don't we let a little time pass and see how this year fits into the broader context before we launch all the amateur investigations into "what's wrong"? [/QUOTE]
