Because they are 18 to 22 year olds who make dumb decisions, like all other 18 to 22 year olds.
You think the portal numbers back when transfers had to sit out a year are going to be the same as now, when transfers don’t have to sit out a year?
Just about every transfer starting in fall of 2019 through spring 2020 before Covid was getting cleared for immediate eligibility, and during Covid in 2020 the free transfer rule was essentially put in place for good. I think that the total number of transfers will be a lot more similar to the fall 2019-spring 2020 numbers than they will fall 2021-spring 2022 numbers after all of those with the extra Covid year have exhausted their eligibility.
We shall see interesting counter point…
Myself as well…keep hoping we hit on a 5 star transfer that will take advantage of the celebrity they would experience and national exposure GT gets as a legacy program …ie Army , Navy, NotreDame…one of the few remaining “good guys” in P5
I can only wish some posters would transfer out of this board.
Yep, we need less diversity of opinion so this can become another echo chamber…
During a televised game, George was incensed by a defensive back getting beat on a post pattern. As the player came off the field, he was directed to one of the field phones and presumably got an earful from a position coach in the booth. Coach O'Leary, being the humble, mild mannered, good natured man he was, yanked the phone out of the player's hand, starts yelling into the phone at the coach and then yells at the player for good measure. Maybe he wasn't sure which one was at fault but by golly someone was getting hollered at for being derelict either playing or coaching.
I remember Dustin. He was a genuinely nice guy. GOL confiscated the bowl gifts from about 30 players at the Gator Bowl in 98 for being 10 minutes early to dinner (O’Leary time is 20 minutes early). Those bags contained the warmups for game day and gifts from the bowl. No dinner, no watch, no clothes. If you have pictures from that day, the guys wearing blue warmups were effected. He gave their stuff to his family and friends.
Notre Dame owed GT a million $ for guaranteeing to pay for his contract buyout. When they found out about his fraudulent resume they refused to pay and said to sue him. Not sure why we never did but interesting why we never went after it. I still contend ND owed it. Another reason I despise their holier than thou attitude.
Wow.
This is a weak, tired take and a cheap shot. I'm sure you're in locker room and with the team to know this.
The proof is in the pudding. Three successive years of winning three games with historic losses are pretty damning. He has this year to get it straightened out and refute the "weak, tired take..."
the thing is you’ve absolutely made up this weird story in your head that he is trying too hard to be friends and not coach. unless you’re in the locker room and know this then you’re just talking out of your behind.
