    When a new coach comes in, let anybody who wants to go, go. Don't recruit them to stay, don't make promises, let the kids transfer. Take your lumps in year 1. If you can recruit you will have it reloaded in year 2, setting up solid year 3 and 4. Load the roster with the new coach's guys. Get your stuff in place and don't be held back by the last guy regardless of his success or failure. The culture changed and colleges need to adapt.

    Somewhere down the line the players and their handlers decided it would be best to just skip the free education part of the SIGNED letter of intent. It's like the word "decommit" which isn't a word.

    Somewhere down the line the NCAA decided it was in their best interest to make the NLIs one-sided non-compete clauses.

    Nothing has changed about the NLIs. They are not one sided. The athlete gets a free education to play ball which is worth THOUSANDS of dollars. NLI's are not unilateral.

    If people use it, and the meaning is generally understood, how is it not a word?

    Think about it. One can't uncommit or decommit. They can be a liar or dishonest or lazy or irresponsible, but decommit is not the word for any of those things. Simply put, if one thinks he can decommit, he was never commited.

    "Irregardless" of what PD says, let's just decide that "decommit" is a word.

    It should be called Renege, because that is what it is.

    So anyone that’s had a divorce is either a liar, dishonest, lazy or irresponsible? I guess so.

    Not always both parties. It's likely that one spouse was one of the above or maybe they were just NEVER committed to each other.

    Kid signs NLI. If the school decides they dont want kid...they are free to release him with no penalty. If the kid decides he doesnt want the school...1 year penalty. Seems pretty unilateral to me. And this may come as a shock to all the grads here, but college isnt for everyone (and Im not just talking athletes). Some dont care about or need the education. Right or wrong...they want to play ball. And they should have the same flexibility as the universities do. I dont think that is asking too much.

    I still say the easiest fix is for the NBA to adopt the MLB model -

    You want to play pro ball and get paid - enter your name in the draft after your senior year in high school, if you decide to go to college you are ineligible for the draft until after your junior class where you can then be draft eligible and if you don't sign you have the option to return your senior year...

    For all sports - you should have one "free" transfer if you meet certain requirements - coach leaves/fired, family issue, etc - I don't like the clearing house approach though - I think it should be at the conference level
    ''Don't be a bad dagh..."

    Thats a much better option than what we have now. And its a good compromise so it should be an easy fix.

    The most unlikely solution...1 free xfer without penalty. Enter the draft and if you dont sign with agent and dont get drafted...you can return to college. If your school no longer has available scholly...you can xfer, but if its your 2nd xfer you have to sitout a year.

    Kids like Trevon Duval at Duke. Wasnt NBA ready...wasnt drafted...but HAD to leave Duke because of incoming class. If it were REALLY about the education and the kids...he should be able to return to school and xfer wherever he can find a home.
