Why are so many so upset about the guys that are transferring? Most of these have never really contributed to the team anyway. If Hoke is coming in and demanding hard work from them from the first day he arrived... THEN THAT IS WHAT WE NEED!! Otherwise, we could expect the same type of result as last year.
I have seen in other threads where people were talking about us not evaluating the talent properly/ coaching miscues, that is why they are leaving... I ask this... ARE YOU SERIOUS??? You think that we are the only school that has players fizzle out of the program and leave? The difference in ours and some programs is that we make this news "front page material". This would be warranted if it were Cooper, D.Williams, BAW, etc. leaving the program. But, we are talking about guys who were hurt for most of their careers or saw the talent we have coming in on defense and got SCARED of the competition that they were going to be seeing on the depth chart. Most of the guys are on the defensive side of the ball. Where was the issues for this team last year? Defense. What coach did we just hire? Defense.
How many offensive guys have left? Two? One couldn't make it to Senior Day Recognition against South Alabama and the other had issues on/off the field from day one.
