Message: [QUOTE="Towney007, post: 2386910, member: 5832"] I never mentioned Larrier, so I'm not sure what that's about, but it's not archaic thinking at all. Lots of kids transfer in other sports, too. Occasionally you can find something good. Most of the time, you don't. A few have perfectly reasonable reasons for wanting to transfer. Mostly it's because they're not valued at their current program for whatever reason. A few here and there are correct - they're undervalued. Most of the time, they're just not that good. Just because everyone's doing it doesn't make it good and just because everyone's doing it doesn't mean UConn does it well and just because everyone's doing it means its a viable way to build a powerhouse. So there's more of it - but the reasons behind it haven't changed much. The results haven't either. But if we want to talk about Larrier -he's played a whopping sixteen minutes of basketball for UConn in two years or whatever. Regardless of whether that's *his fault* or not - he's not playing basketball. Until he succeeds, it's hard to call it a success. If you're not playing basketball, you're not helping a basketball team. [/QUOTE]
