Message: [QUOTE="champs99and04, post: 5260426, member: 488"] College sports should serve the athlete at their existing school before the athlete at some other school. Coaches like Pitino have clearly taken advantage of a tool that was initially meant to benefit the player by effectively forcing anyone that's underperforming even slightly out the door. Yes, this has always happened to some degree, but it's far more prevalent now that everyone's a free agent every year. When a coach determines that a top 50 recruit who grew up across the bridge from MSG - and had a perfectly normal freshman season - is unfit to be the 7th or 8th man on the following year's team, he has reached the point where he is only feeding his neurotic impulses.
