I have no problem with telling a player, "You're never going to play here. You really need to consider transferring."
I do have a problem with, "You're never going to play here. We're not renewing your scholarship."
That said, I'm probably splitting hairs with the difference between the two scenarios. The end result is still the same- the player transfers.Last edited by XU 87; 08-24-2017 at 01:16 PM.

I have no problem with forcing a player out. I do feel like when the transfer is because of the coach, the player should not have to sit out.
I feel like when kids transfer, it's always spun as the kid was unhappy.

Kids aren't going to stick around when they're being told that they wont be playing. Its a very "polite" way of telling a player they aren't part of the future. Mostly happens to the younger kids who may have been a reach or a last minute recruit. I have no issue with it at all.

It's tough. It reminds me of some tough calls I've had to make as a moderator.
Sometimes I have to say to a poster, "Look kid, you can keep posting, but nobody likes you, and I'm probably going to delete a lot of your posts." It's the toughest job a moderator has. In many ways it is easier, and more humane, to simply ban them.

The transfer rule sucks for precisely this reason. But if it didn't exist, coaches would be poaching players left and right. It's really a no-win situation.

I don't know. If players could transfer without sitting I think there would be a lot of shenanigans going on behind the scenes. I do, however, think that players should be released without restriction and without having to sit out a year if their head coach leaves.
