    Konkol appears to have a problem keeping both players and staff.

    To make it comparable, give me that stats on the turnover of students on full scholarships, not just the turnover rate of the general pop. That is like comparing the owners of folks buying used cars to folks buying luxury cars.

    It is not just you. However, Duruji was better and a healthy Bracey and Duruji is a lot to build on going forward. Maybe we need some more Maryland kids.

    Do we conduct exit interviews for players or coaches? Maybe we should start?

    What's the transfer rate for "scholarship" students...

    Can't compare student-athletes to the general student population

    You could go a long way in making the data more comparable by adding information on both sides (the numbers for basketball players transferring doesn't account for things like kids being encouraged to look elsewhere either).

    The point is just that before we all assume that this is the end of world, this is a thing that college students do, and it's ok. It's not great as a fan of a particular team, and it's worrisome when you start thinking of all the schools with more resources out there tempting "our" guys away. But it's not necessarily some great moral collapse.

    Totally irrelevant. "Academic scholarship" students generally cannot transfer and get the same "scholarship" at a different institution; student-athletes can.

    How much worse does the transfer rate get if they do away with sitting out a year? If G5 schools are just the minor league for P5’s we will lose freshman all the time who show any promise.

    No it's not irrelevant when a statement is made how their transfer rate is lower than the general student transfer rate -

    They are all "free market" variables -

    I would argue it is part of the moral collapse of the society in general also

    I would like to know - how many of these transfers attended two or more "high schools or prep schools"

    How many of these transfers "shopped" AAU programs

    It is a multi-BILLION dollar business now and it's all about MINE or WHAT SHOULD BE MINE



    It is about committment

    Re: Jy'lan Washington is gone

    I will add this -

    I'm totally against the argument of a college athlete being paid for their "likeness or image"...

    How much is that "image" worth without the NAME on the jersey?

    Can someone answer that question?

    I Johnnie B or Suzie Q Smith's image worth ANYTHING without the KANSAS, DUKE, GONZAGA, ALABAMA or ETAL's name on the jersey?

    No it's not

    And if it does have some "potential value" isn't it being paid for on a DEFERRED BASIS when they go pro or attempt to go pro?

    Without the EXPOSURE provided for and PAID for through the association with the NAME ON THE JERSEY what potential value does it have

    IF the individual is so valuable go pro right after high school and find out what that VALUE is - 99,999 out of 100,000 times it is not much

    Parents and handlers would let these kids ENJOY the RIDE and grow from it - the kids would be better served for life in general which is NOT FAIR and is FULL OF PITFALLS AND CHALLENGES

    No, actually it isn't (although some of us would, perhaps, like for it to be).

    I'd argue it's more about marketplace efficiency, something that is constantly increasing due to technological advancements in availability of information (data)..
