[QUOTE="Boomergump, post: 216116, member: 639"] If it is a 4 year scholarship, I have no problem with a coach placing limitations on where a kid can transfer. Heck, I have no problem with a coach refusing to release him from the scholarship. It is a contract for crying out loud. In most cases, a coach will let a kid go. I mean, who wants a malcontent hanging around, taking up a scholarship? If it is a one year scholarship (contract), I don't see how a coach can stop a kid once the year is over. If you don't want limitations placed on you, don't sign the letter. It is as simple as that. I am really not sure how far our culture is going to take this sentiment that "the world revolves around me and whatever I want to do is what I will do regardless of the commitments I made". All it takes nowadays is for a kid to have a little competition, making it a little difficult to move up the depth chart, before he just opts to bail. Waaaaaaahhhhhhh! When I signed my contract letter with the USMC I had no illusions. I was giving up my rights and freedom to decide for myself for a given period of time. I had no problem with it. I understood why it was important and I entered into the agreement with my eyes wide open. Just like Uncle Sam was under no obligation to please me, neither should a coach be. [/QUOTE]
